+msbasic2ascii (detokenizers for MS BASIC variants)
+
+This package contains detokenizers for 12 different flavors of
+Microsoft BASIC. They convert the binary SAVE format to human
+readable BASIC source. Supported BASICs include TSR-80 Model I Level
+II (trs80ascii) and Model 4 (trsm4ascii), MSX (msxascii), GW-BASIC
+(gwascii), MS-BASIC for CP/M (cpmascii), Tandy CoCo (cocoascii),
+Dragon 32/64 (drascii).
+
+Also, experimental unsupported detokenizers are included for
+OSI 8K BASIC (osiascii), Exidy Sorceror (sorcascii), Nascom
+BASIC (nscmascii), Crytal BASIC (xtalascii), and Compucolor
+(compucolorascii). Some of these are known to be incomplete, and some
+just need testing against real-world code.
