The old README was a flat list of one-line descriptions, several of which no longer described the script: log_rotate gained flags and no longer purges by default, restore and process_monitor now confirm before acting, rsync_magic changed a default, and disk_cleanup grew guards. Rewritten around the conventions that are now consistent across the collection -- --dry-run, a confirmation before anything destructive, an unattended escape hatch, and a refusal rather than a guess when there is no tty to ask on. That last one is the part worth knowing before putting any of these in cron. Groups the scripts by what they are for rather than listing them alphabetically, and states the things a reader would otherwise have to discover by reading source: that security_audit as an ordinary user proves very little, that log_rotate is not a logrotate replacement and why, that update_system is unattended on every branch, and that restore's tar options matter because an archive picks its own ownership and modes. Also updated three script headers that had gained ASSUME_YES/FORCE escapes without documenting them, so the headers and the README agree. Every flag, environment variable and behaviour claimed here was checked against the scripts rather than written from memory.

# Description: Extracts the tar.gz archive into the target directory (current dir if not specified).

# Lists the archive contents and asks before extracting, since it

# overwrites whatever is already there. Set ASSUME_YES=1 to skip the

# prompt for unattended use.

#
|

# Extraction options are deliberately conservative -- see the tar call.
