+valtz - CLI utility to validate tinydns-data files
+
+
+What is it?
+===========
+
+This is a fork of `Magnus Bodin's <https://x42.com/software/valtz/>`_
+tool to validate `tinydns-data
+<https://cr.yp.to/djbdns/tinydns-data.html>`_ files. It is still
+maintained, but only barely, because no one uses tinydns any more.
+
+
+How do I install it?
+====================
+
+It's a Perl script, so download it and put it in your ``$PATH``. It
+comes with a man page that can be installed to your system's
+``$MANPATH`` as well.
+
+
+How do I use it?
+================
+
+Run it on your tinydns-data files. If it finds errors, it will complain:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ valtz example.com.tinydns
+ File example.com.tinydns
+ line 1; err 32 @example.com.::127.0.0.1:
+ expected: fqdn:ip:x:dist:ttl:timestamp:lo
+ pos 2; x; IP address found where hostname expected
+ $ echo $?
+ 1
+
+If it doesn't, it won't:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ valtz example.org.tinydns
+ $ echo $?
+ 0
+
+For more details, see the included man page.
+
+
+How do I report bugs?
