Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
I've been dipping into the Perl 5 programs in ''tools/dev/'' today --
adding some POD here; posing some questions on list there. All the
programs I've looked at are appropriately placed in that directory. That
would suggest that the remaining tasks are:
1. Decide what, if any, useful purpose a separate ''tools/util/''
directory serves.
2. Move ''addopstags.pl'' and ''headerizer.pl'' from ''tools/build/'' to
''tools/dev/''.
3. Write a ''README'' for each directory.
Does that seem like a correct approach?
Thank you very much.
