Missed a bug that crept into the above version, a missing "/" in
category pathnames.

Darn it, wouldn't you know?  This is what I get for submitting a patch
after working all day on a port.  :-)

Final version, just uploaded to Sourceforge is now version 1.1.1:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mkreadmes/files/mkreadmes-1.1.1.tar.bz2/download

Lesson learned.  I *will* be more thorough in my testing from now
on.  :-)

Sorry for the inconvenience, folks.

Conrad
