These files are miscellaneous tools used by the configure, build,
install, or/and release processes. Most of them are used from the
Makefiles (maybe only if ./configure decided so), but a few of them
are meant to be run manually. The list below attempts to give a short
summary for each of the file that doesn't come along with autoconf or
automake.
alpha.sh make an alpha release (distcheck, upload, web-update, announce)
autogen.sh create all autoconf/automake generated files
cvsboot.sh bootstrap a fresh CVS checkout
exnews.pl get latest entry from any ChangeLog-like file (used with NEWS)
fetish-sync.sh update all files shared with (=stolen from) fetish
genm4mam.sh create m4/Makefile.inc
genpotfile.sh create po/POTFILES.in
readme.sed used to extract the top-level README from the Texinfo manual
upgettext.sh install gettext's files and patch them
The file `HACKING', at the top-level directory of the distribution,
might give some instructions regarding the usage of these files.
