-The FHist package contains 3 utilities, a file history tool ``fhist'',
-a file comparison tool ``fcomp'', and a file merging tool ``fmerge'.
-All three are bundled together, because they all use the same algorithm.
+ FHist is a minimalist history tool. It provides no locking or branching.
+This can be useful in contexts where the configuration management or change
+control be being provided by some other tool.
-fhist
+fhist Keeps track of versions of a file. It works correctly when
+ given binary files as input.

+ textual comparison. It is capable of comparing two binary
+ files byte-for-byte.
