+ |                              DESCRIPTION                                   |
+ It appears that someone, prior to packaging up the ant tree for release, ran 
+ FixCRLF or equivalent on all the files in the docs/manual (and possibly other) 
+ subtrees, including running it on the included .GIF files.  This naturally 
+ screws those files completely.  It's this way in both the .zip and .tar.gz 
+ files.
+ 
+ Is there really any reason to even have the textual documentation moved through 
+ FixCRLF?  What windows HTML editors (besides notepad - if that's your thing, 
+ try wordpad) are there that can't handle plain old linefeed-ending files?  Why 
+ impose carriage returns on non-Windows users?
