SPITE - Simple Packager And Installer for Tcl Extensions
Directions to find it at Stu
README:
SPITE is a utility to package Tcl scripts and other
text files for easy distribution and installation.
SPITE is designed mainly for unix systems.
SPITE takes a list of files and puts them
and the installer code in to a shell script.
This shell script may then be used to install the extension.
The idea behind SPITE is to provide a simple way to distribute
mostly non-binary Tcl extensions consisting of a handful of text files.
Textual input files must terminate with a newline or SPITE will break.
When installing files of type 'tclscript', the installer will pass
the file through sed with one or both of the following regexps:
"1,5s/exec .*tclsh[^ ]*/exec ${TCLSH}/g"
"1,5s/exec .*wish[^ ]*/exec ${WISH}/g"
This requires sed and mktemp on the target system.
Checksumming may me disabled during install with --sum ""
Useage:
spite [-f configfile]
Will write to stdout a .spite installer file based
on the configuration in configfile.
