Sitar prepares system information using perl and binary tools, and by
reading the /proc file system. Output is in HTML, LaTeX and (docbook)
XML, and can be converted to PS and PDF.

This program must be run as "root".

sitar.pl includes scsiinfo by Eric Youngdale, Michael Weller
and ide_info by David A. Hinds
.

The accompanying tool "cfg2scm" is supplied for checking configuration
changes into SCMs (like SVN, CVS, ...) or creating a tar-file with all
relevant files.

Comment: Sitar is an ancient Indian instrument as well.
