(Migrated from codeberg.org)

This project is a derivative work off Grumbel/steamtools @ github.com which in turn is forked from DarkStarSword/junk @ github.com.

Both of these projects are MIT Licensed. Since this is a rewrite in Go (and soon to be/kinda already is refactor and functionality add), copyleft licenses are on the table.

For now, here is a draft LICENSE if I inherit the license as is:
