This is the GNU diction and style, free implementations of old standard
unix commands. For some reason, many modern systems lack them. Diction
prints wordy and commonly misused phrases. Style analyses surface
characteristics of a document, e.g. sentence length and various
readability measures.
Import of GNU diction and style, for finding possible errors in text and evaluating its readability. I think I will stick with my brain in my quest to clean up */*/pkg/DESCR; while slower, I'll bet it's more accurate. :-) PR: 7479 Submitted by: J Han <hjh@best.com>

Both commands support English and German documents.

The vast majority of pkg-descr files had the following format when they had both lines: Author: ... WWW: .... So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary. Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying forms, like -- name, etc. s/AUTHOR/Author/ A few other various formatting issues
