-† The only non‐Posix programs‡ required (other than G·N·U Make itself,

-Additionally, not all Linux distributions bundle all necessary Posix
-  programs; on Debian (for example) you may need to separately install
-  **`sharutils`** for `uudecode` and `uuencode` and **`pax`** for
-  archiving.
-
-‡ This make·file also currently depends on non‐Posix `stat` but
-  attempts to handle both the G·N·U and B·S·D variants.
-It expects `xargs` to accept a `-0` option, which, while widely
-  supported, is not a part of the Posix standard.

 In Ascii environments, ⛩️📰 书社 should be written `Shushe`, following
   the pinyin transliteration.
 

+## Prerequisites
+
+In most cases, ⛩️📰 书社 aims to require only functionality which is
+  present in all Posix‐compliant (`POSIX.1-2001`) operating systems.
+There are a few exceptions.
+Details on particular programs are given below; if a program is not
+  listed, it is assumed that any Posix‐compliant implementation will
+  work.
+
+### `diff`
+
+This is a Posix utility, but ⛩️📰 书社 depends on functionality
+  introduced after `POSIX.1-2001` (the `-u` option, introduced in
+  `POSIX.1-2008`).
+Macintosh systems somewhat interestingly implement this option
+  correctly in legacy mode (`COMMAND_MODE=legacy`) but incorrectly by
+  default (despite claiming `POSIX.1-2008` conformance for this
+  utility).
+[Note this erroneous comment claiming nanosecond & timezone are
+  extensions rather than standardized.][rdar-92753335]
+Despite this, the default Macintosh implementation will still work with
+  ⛩️📰 书社, with the caveat that the timestamp will only include a
+  fractional component when a Posix⹀compliant (e·g, Macintosh legacy or
+  G·N·U) implementation is used.
+
+### `file`
+
+This is a Posix utility, but it was considered optional in
+  `POSIX.1-2001` (altho it was made mandatory in `POSIX.1-2008`) and
+  ⛩️📰 书社 currently depends on unspecified behaviour.
+It requires support for the following additional options :⁠—
+
+- **`-C`**, when supplied with `-m`, must be useable to compile a
+    `.mgc` magicfile for use with future invocations of `file`.
+
+- **`--files-from`** must be useable to provide a file that `file`
+    should read file·names from, and `-` must be useable in this
+    context to specify the standard input.
+
+- **`--mime-type`** must cause `file` to print the internet media type
+    of the file with no charset parameter.
+
+- **`--separator`** must be useable to set the separator that `file`
+    uses to separate file names from types.
+
+These options are implemented by the
+  [Fine Free File Command](https://darwinsys.com/file/), which is used
+  by most operating systems.
+
+### `git`
+
+This is not a Posix utility.
+Usage of `git` is optional, but recommended (and activated by default).
+To disable it, set `GIT=`.
+
+### `make`
+
+This is a Posix utility, but it is considered an optional Software
+  Development utility and ⛩️📰 书社 currently depends on unspecified
+  behaviour.
+⛩️📰 书社 requires specifically the G·N·U version of `make`, and
+  depends on functionality present in version 3.81 or later.
+It is not expected to work in previous versions, or with other
+  implementations of Make.
+
+### `pax`
+
+This is a Posix utility, but it is not included in the Linux Standard
+  Base or installed by default in many distributions.
+⛩️📰 书社 only requires support for the `ustar` format.
+
+### `uudecode` and `uuencode`
+
+These are Posix utilities, but they were considered optional in
+  `POSIX.1-2001` (altho they are made mandatory in `POSIX.1-2008`) and
+  they are not included in the Linux Standard Base or installed by
+  default in many distributions.
+The G·N·U [Sharutils](https://www.gnu.org/software/sharutils/) package
+  provides one implementation.
+
+### `xmlcatalog` and `xmllint`
+
+These are not a Posix utilities.
+They are a part of `libxml2`, but may need to be installed separately
+  on some platforms (e·g by the name `libxml2-utils`).
+
+### `xsltproc`
+
+This is not a Posix utility.
+It is a part of `libxslt`, but may need to be installed separately on
+  some platforms.
