GNU shtool -- The GNU Portable Shell Tool
____________________________________________________________________
INSTALLATION
Usually you want to use shtool inside the source tree of your own free
software package (say it stays under /path/to/mypkg). For this you first
have compile the `shtool' script and then just copy it over to your own
source tree. To achieve this run in your shell:
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make test
$ cp shtool /path/to/mypkg/shtool
Additionally you can use `shtoolize' to first assemble a custom `shtool'
script (here with the modules `install', `mkdir' and `tarball':
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make test
$ shtoolize install mkdir tarball
$ cp shtool /path/to/mypkg/shtool
Also please notice the license terms which apply to the generated shtool
program. You can find them at the top of the generated shtool program file.
Alternatively you can also install shtool in a system wide location (for
easier upgrading from there or to make shtool available for users from
within the shell). To install shtool into /path/to/shtool/{bin,man}/ perform
the following steps in your shell:
$ ./configure --prefix=/path/to/shtool
$ make
$ make test
$ make install
Please keep in mind that although the building of `shtool' requires Perl 5
the generated `shtool' script does _NOT_ require Perl under runtime, of
course.
