+# center
+
+`center(1)` is a very basic UNIX utility to… well… center text.  The
+documentation for the tool can be found [here][1].  If you would like to
+contribute to the project, a list of tasks that need completing can be found in
+the [TODO][2] file in the repo.  This utility should be as simple as possible,
+accepting input from stdin and printing output to stdout.  This should be the
+best utility possible to center text.
