>Description:
	The linxt Perl script is a Unix command line tool for communicating
	with the Lego Mindstorms Robotics NXT brick.  It can be used to
	query the brick for information like firmware version, battery
	level, etc. and also to upload robotics programs compiled with
	NBC/NXC.  Linxt requires Device::USB, the Perl wrappers for libusb.
	This port will likely be a dependency for future versions of the
	NBC port.

# This is a shell archive.  Save it in a file, remove anything before
# this line, and then unpack it by entering "sh file".  Note, it may
# create directories; files and directories will be owned by you and

XUsers of linxt must have write permissions on the USB devices associated
Xwith the NXT brick (e.g. dev/usb0* and dev/ugen0*).  Using chmod will
Xonly affect these devices until they are detached.  See etc/devfs.rules
Xand etc/usbd.conf (also "man devfs.rules" and "man usbd.conf") for
Xcontrolling USB device permissions when they are attached.
