It's a verbatim copy of README converted to markdown. Maybe README
should be fixed and this regenerated. The trailing whitespace is part
of the conversion and not a mistake.

If you want to update README and hier(7) and have README.md generated
from that automatically, be my guest. None of that was in the
submission, and the submission was useful as it was.
