+The API for
+`require-in-the-middle` is followed as closely as possible as the default

+don't do any filtering of modules, and present the full file URL as a parameter
+to the hook. See the Typescript definition file for detailed API docs.
 
 You can modify anything exported from any given ESM or CJS module that's
 imported in ESM files, regardless of whether they're imported statically or

+* Prefixed with `hook-` if they use the `Hook` class.
+* Prefixed with `ll-` if they use the "low-level" API, `addHook` and

+
+The tests should be run with the `runtest` command found in this directory. If
+the command exits with a non-zero code, then it's a test failure.
+
+Running of all the tests can be done with `npm test`.
