# Usage:
#
# ./mkrlconf [--force]
#
# Options:
#
#   --force  -- Overwrite an existing file (default is to not replace existing file)

# Revision history:
#
# 0.10.1  -- Improve extraction of kernel options from /proc/cmdline
# 0.10.0  -- Renamed from mkrlconf.sh to mkrlconf; changed to get $DefaultOptions
#            from /proc/cmdline rather than from GRUB
# 0.9.0   -- Added check for OS type, to keep from running pointlessly on OS X
# 0.7.7   -- Fixed bug that caused stray PARTUUID= and line breaks in generated file
# 0.5.1   -- Initial release
#
# Note: mkrlconf version numbers match those of the rEFInd package
# with which they first appeared.
