The test/samples directory contains pre-built ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16,
and binary test input files with names of the form

     sample-*.txt.gz

They are created by the gen-utf.c program in this directory (which
is not installed with the main utfcheck program), and are compressed
with "gzip -9".  These test files are distributed pre-built with the
source package to simplify the configuration of systems with continuous
integration testing.

These sample files are not installed, so unless you save this source
package they will not take up room on your system following installation.
The largest file, sample-utf8.txt.gz, contains every legal UTF-8 code
point (not including the surrogate pairs range), and is approximately
2 Megabytes.  This file allows testing utfcheck exhaustively across
the entire UTF-8 range.

If you want to keep the source pakcage on your system and do not want
these files taking up space, can remove them.  Just type

     rm sample-*.txt.gz

To recreate them, you should just be able to type

     make

in this directory.  To be safe, try the "make" command after moving
the existing "sample-*" files to a safe location.
