The suite currently contains(*):

=== ./bugnumbers ===

This tool collects bug numbers from Launchpad. You can either pass it
 * a Launchpad bug list URL with `-l <URL>`
 * a source package name like `evolution`

It respects the switch `-a` which does not only read the bug numbers from one bug list page (which is currently limited to 75 per list), but uses the 'Next' links to traverse through the following pages also.

Examples: {{{
   bugnumbers -a evolution
   bugnumbers -l https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gcalctool/+bugs
}}}

=== ./bughelper ===

This tool searches through bugs and tries to find matches with data in `.info` files. It has the same functionality and switches as `bugnumber`. In addition to that it accepts
 * `-A´ which lets it search through all the bug attachments with the mime type `text/plain`.
 
Examples: {{{
   bugnumbers -a evolution
   bugnumbers -A -l https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gcalctool/+bugs
}}}

=== ./bugxml ===

This tool is primarily intended to help with the editing and creation of `.info` files. There are currently two use cases:
 * `-e <string>´ escapes a given string for use in XML files.
 * `-v <file>´ validates a given file against the clue file schema.

Examples: {{{
   bugxml -e This string has some weird characters like ä, ü and ö in it.
   bugxml -v packages/ubiquity.info
}}}
