Bug: you need a README for people who think:
 "Hey, what's on that chip in that card in my wallet?
 I'll buy a "card reader" to find out!"

Hello, I have installed libpcsc-perl libccid pcsc-tools pcscd
libpcsclite1, but I still can't figure out how to get started.

All I want to do is have a look at whatever data lies in the chip
embedded in my three Taiwan cards: health insurance, postbank, and pay
telephone cards.

I bought a
  iManufacturer           1 CASTLES
  iProduct                2 EZ100PU Smart Card Reader
I run pcscd and pcsc_scan, stick in a card and nothing happens.
syslog has no new lines either.

All I want to do is
$ od -c /my/smart/card
or something.

Pages like http://ludovic.rousseau.free.fr/softwares/pcsc-tools/ are
not made for beginners.

The CDROM accompanying the reader has these files on it, among others:
API/Linux/v1.1.0/example/Makefile
API/Linux/v1.1.0/example/casmcard.h
API/Linux/v1.1.0/example/pcsclite.h
API/Linux/v1.1.0/example/rdrtest
API/Linux/v1.1.0/example/rdrtest.c
API/Linux/v1.1.0/example/wintypes.h
API/Linux/v1.1.0/include/casmcard.h
API/Linux/v1.1.0/include/pcsclite.h
API/Linux/v1.1.0/include/wintypes.h
API/Linux/v1.1.0/lib/libcasmcard.so
API/Linux/v1.1.0/readme.txt
Linux/driver_ezusb_v1.4.0/Info.plist
Linux/driver_ezusb_v1.4.0/creadme.txt
Linux/driver_ezusb_v1.4.0/ezusb.so
Linux/driver_ezusb_v1.4.0/install
Linux/driver_ezusb_v1.4.0/readme.txt
Linux/pcsclite_v1.1.1/pcsc-lite-1.1.1-1-redhat.i386.rpm
Linux/readme.txt

Of course I don't know what to do next. Maybe installing some debian
package makes it unnecessary to use some of these files perhaps...
