+# [VGM-Tools](https://github.com/ScrelliCopter/VGM-Tools)
+
+Personal scratch pad for various VGM extraction/transformation projects.
+
+Tools that are used in scripts are ususally included in-tree and may be out of date or augmented from their upstream versions.
+
+Licenses should be specified per project.
+
+This repository is in a constant state of flux and things may not work or compile at any one time, you may want to look at the [Releases](https://github.com/ScrelliCopter/VGM-Tools/releases) tab for snapshots of the repository that may prove more useful.
+
+The tools herein are primarily made for my own use or some kind of one-off problem, but they are provided here in the hopes they may be useful to someone.
