Import of GNU diction and style, for finding possible errors in
text and evaluating its readability. I think I will stick with my brain in my quest to clean up */*/pkg/DESCR; while slower, I'll bet it's more accurate. :-) PR: 7479 Submitted by: J Han <hjh@best.com>

+This is the snapshot release 0.6 beta of GNU diction and style, free
+implementations of old standard unix commands. For some reason,
+many modern systems lack them. Diction prints wordy and commonly
+misused phrases. Style analyses surface characteristics of a document,
+e.g. sentence length and various readability measures.
+
+Both commands support English and German documents.
