+----------
+
+This is a simple web tree checker, useful to find bad links in a web
+tree. It currently checks links pointing within the same subweb for
+validity. The main program is "webchecker.py". See its doc string
+(or invoke it with the option "-?") for more defails.
+
+History:
+
+- Jan 1997. First release. The module robotparser.py was written by
+Skip Montanaro; the rest is original work by Guido van Rossum.
+
+- May 1999. Sam Bayer contributed a new version, wcnew.py, which
+supports checking internal links (#spam fragments in URLs) and some
+other options.
+
+- Nov 1999. Sam Bayer contributed patches to reintegrate wcnew.py
+into webchecker.py, and corresponding mods to wcgui.py and
+websucker.py.
+
+- Mar 2004. Chris Herborth contributed a patch to let webchecker.py
+handle XHTML's 'id' attribute.
