<H2><A NAME="s7">7. Module builder</A></H2>
<P>A shell module builder is available to get you started faster.
You access this builder from shellmod main menu or with the shellmod
utility:
<P>
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
<PRE>
shellmod --build
</PRE>
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>A single dialog appears. You fill it and this create the framework
for a new shell module. Here are the various fields
<P>
<H2><A NAME="ss7.1">7.1 Path of the module</A>
</H2>
<P>You simply enter the full or relative path of the new shell script
you want to create. The builder is not able to edit an existing
module.
<P>
<H2><A NAME="ss7.2">7.2 Insert in menu</A>
</H2>
<P>You must supply the menu id of the menu in which you want to insert
the module (in Linuxconf). A module may insert in several
Linuxconf menus, but the builder only supports one. Modifying the
code later is easy.
<P>This field has a help list to pick the proper ID.
<P>
<H2><A NAME="ss7.3">7.3 Menu title</A>
</H2>
<P>Just enter the text of the menu entry.
<P>
<H2><A NAME="ss7.4">7.4 This is a user account co-manager</A>
</H2>
<P>By selecting this check-box, you instruct the builder to generate
the proper co-manager function templates (setupdia,save,deluser,validate).
<P>Note that a module may be a co-manager and insert in menus as well.
<P>
<H2><A NAME="ss7.5">7.5 Main menu entries</A>
</H2>
<P>You simply enter the various menu entries. For each one, the builder
will generate a shell function template menufunc1, menufunc2. It
will also generate the menu code in the main function. You will
have to provide the code for the various menufunc functions.
<P>
