       This file is provides a direct interface to libcpuid. See the usage() function (or just
       run the program with the `--help' switch) for a short command line options reference.

       This file has several purposes:

       1.  When started with no arguments, the program outputs the RAW and decoded CPU data to
           files (`raw.txt' and `report.txt', respectively) - this is intended to be a dumb,
           doubleclicky tool for non-developer users, that can provide debug info about
           unrecognized processors to libcpuid developers.

       2.  When operated from the terminal with the `--report' option, it is a generic CPU-info
           utility.

       3.  Can be used in shell scripts, e.g. to get the name of the CPU, cache sizes, features,
           with query options like `--cache', `--brandstr', etc.

       4.  Finally, it serves to self-document libcpiud itself :)
