Welcome to Rohan Pall's hints on how to use those sexy starkits!
an abscence of magic, and no policy
There is no presupposition about how your files are arranged other than that the top level main.tcl is to be interpreted at launch [L1 ].
Unlike some other wrapping methods there isn't an enforced or assumed layout.
writable writeable vfs
I packaged my mindweb app in a starkit. All its data was also stored in the starkit. I had read somewhere that by default starkits were writable (r/w) but this in fact has changed over summer 2002. [L2 ] Now starkits are by default read-only (r/o) [L3 ], but the documentation is lagging behind that fact.
You make your starkit writable by doing it at wrap time:
sdx wrap app.kit -writable
2002-09-17 (September 17, 2002) sdx doesnt give any hints that this option exists when displaying help with
sdx help wrap
but it does indeed exist! ;>
