Cool, thanks!

I've committed this with a few minor changes:

- Update the expected output files which seemed to have Windows line
endings which caused failures.
- Remove the dependency on the "timeout" command which doesn't exist on
macOS (and the version in macPorts doesn't play nicely with /dev/null). Use
bash-fu instead.
- Add some usage notes to the README file.

Thanks again!
