I see two projects being bandied about here. One is a web-interface to
the archive - someone mentioned the CPAN archive. Me, I always think of
the RPM Archive available at http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/ ....one
of their pages on UPX looks like this:
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/PLD/PLD-1.0/i386/PLD/RPMS/upx-1.20-1.i386.html
(Anyone ever notice that new stuff always shows up in the Polish
Distribution first?)
The other project is a sort of "what's this package about" detail which
helps to describe the package itself. No reason both couldn't be
included together. Take the following shell script:

Run this from time to time, in each directory, and include a link to
each help screen in the web page I developed. You can do this:
find . -name "*.lrp" | xargs helpgen
And change the above script this way (wrapped around the original "for"
statement):
if [ $# -gt 1 ] ; then
PKGS="$*"
else
PKGS="*.lrp"
fi
for i in $PKGS ; do
cd $(basename $PKGS)
