Well, the code was basically written by you :-)

It was written to be a script capable of running a generic
script. On that time, my contribution to it was basically
to hardcode it to run "get_abi.pl".

This came from an old branch where the last change was back in 2017. 
It was resurrected due to a discussion at KS ML.

There, the discussion was related to what's left to be converted
to ReST.

While I can't simply remove your copyright, would you be happy
with something like that?


Thanks,
Mauro
