rsadowski noted that DESCR is too lenghty and upon second read I agree
that my shameless dump of the project's README is too much.

Nonetheless I'd like to provide more information than

        yq is a command line processor for Yaml/Xml documents,
        similar to jq for Json.

for the user's convenience, so here's a second attempt that reduces
DESCR into what I think is still relevant;  no other changes in the new
tarball except a whitespace fix in Makefile.

Information for inst:yq-2.7.2

Comment:
jq wrapper for YAML/XML documents

Description:
yq takes YAML input, converts it to JSON, and filters it through jq(1).

No output conversion is done by default.  Command line arguments are forwarded.
yq exits 1 on YAML parsing errors, otherwise jq's exit code is forwarded.

YAML tags in the input are ignored (any nested data is treated as untagged).
Key order is preserved.

xq behaves like yq but takes XML input.  Multiple XML documents can be passed
in separate files/streams.  Entity expansion and DTD resolution is disabled to
avoid XML parsing vulnerabilities.
