+ack (grep for coders)
+
+ack is a tool like grep, optimized for programmers.
+Designed for programmers with large heterogeneous trees of source
+code, ack is written purely in portable Perl 5 and takes advantage
+of the power of Perl's regular expressions.
+
+This script packages the all-in-one version, including inside all
+the needed dependencies.
