API Repository question and suggestion

Maybe I missed something basic, but I have a question about the format of the repository. Is there a readme file that explains what the scripts actually do for each file? I see the .json file which gives a one sentence description, but usually the description is so abbreviated that I for one do not usually know what the script actually does. An exception to the confusion, as I see it, is the script "Flight". As soon as you click on the link for this script, you see an actual description which looks like this: Flight Adds copies of the fluffy-wing status icon to the selected tokens with numbers indicating how high the token is flying. Use !fly height (where height is a number) while selecting one or more tokens. If height is 0 or is omitted, the wings will be removed. Any integer number can be used, although any digits of the number which are 0 will show up as wings without a number. Wouldn't it be great if all of the files were as easy to read as this one?? I LOVE Roll20 and greatly appreciate all those who make my experience here what it is. I believe that making the repository easier to understand would only add to the great experience I and others are having here.

The repo is pretty new. I at least have been hustling to get the scripts in there, but plan to go back and add readmes as time permits. =D

You can also look at the script's wiki page for more information. All scripts on the repo ought to have a page on the wiki linked from <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/API:Script_Index" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/API:Script_Index</a>
Thanks Brian! I didn't see that
