The github markdown interpreter has been changed such that it no longer allows spaces in between the brackets and parenthesis of links and now requires a newline in between anchors and other formatting. This updates all of the markdown files accordingly. While here, it also corrects a couple of inconsistencies in some of the README.md files. |

txscript
Package txscript implements the bitcoin transaction script language. There is a comprehensive test suite.
This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to use or validate bitcoin transaction scripts.
Bitcoin Scripts
Bitcoin provides a stack-based, FORTH-like language for the scripts in the bitcoin transactions. This language is not turing complete although it is still fairly powerful. A description of the language can be found at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script
