 This Toolkit provides an interactive, programmer-friendly interface to
 VProbes. It allows you to write instrumentation scripts using a C-like

-## Overview

-This toolkit consists the following:
+high-level language called Emmett which is a replacement for the more
+primitive VP language native to VProbes. It includes,
 
 1. Source code for the Emmett compiler (emmett).
 2. Example VProbes scripts written in Emmett (cookbook).
 3. Some sample scripts that monitor interesting events in Linux
    guests (bin).
