Upspear is a new application to fully manage the PSP from a PC. It's thought for
PSPs with firmware 1.50, at least for the moment. Support for other firmwares
may be added in the future, in case somebody gets homebrew running on them.

At the moment you can:
- See the homebrews you have installed, rename and delete them.
- Identify useless folders in psp/game.
- See your savegames and delete the ones you don't need anymore.
- Hide the "corrupt data" icons or push them to the bottom of the list.
- Kxploit a 1.0 eboot.pbp, making it work under 1.5 firmwares.
- View the contents of a .SFO format file (i. e.: param.sfo).

All these functions can be performed through the nice graphical interface the
program has. The program itself is in English, but it uses GNU gettext, which
means that it can be easily translated in other languages. At the moment only an
Italian translation is available, but anybody can submit more translations, see
the "Contributing" section below if you're interested.

Upspear is programmed in C, using the GTK+ toolkit. Development is done under
Linux, but it should run with no problems on other operating systems, such as
Windows and MacOSX. The code is released under the GPL, so it is free software
(as in "free speech", not as in "free beer").

Many things have still to be implemented, as I don't have as much time to spend
on it as I would like, but basic features are there, and it should *never* crash
(hopefully :D). We have made this test release so that people can use and test
the program. Should you encounter any bugs/crashes, we would like you to report
them, mailing us at enjoy.the.silence@iol.it.

Upspear is free software released under the GNU General Public License (GPL),
which basically means that you can get the sources and modify them as much as
you like, as long as you release all your modifications under the same license.
Although, even though the license does not require it, we would be glad if you
mailed us any modifications you do, so that we can keep a single version of the
program around, which means less confusion for the users :).

Indeed, if you have a lot of ideas about the program, you are welcome to join
the development team. Mail us for any info. You can also contribute translations
in your language. If you know how to do it, just mail us the corresponding .po
file, otherwise mail us and we'll help you.

We also need Linux packages for more distributions: SuSE, RedHat/Fedora,
Mandrake, Debian, etc...
