makeSH(1)

NAME

   makeSH - a .SH script maker

SYNOPSIS

   makeSH files

DESCRIPTION

   MakeSH  examines one or more scripts and produces a .SH file that, when
   run under sh, will produce the original  script.   The  .SH  script  so
   produced has two sections containing code destined for the output.  The
   first section has variable substitutions performed on it (taking values
   from  config.sh),  while  the second section does not.  MakeSH does not
   know which variables you want to have substituted, so it puts the whole
   script  into the second section.  It's up to you to insert any variable
   substitutions in the  first  section  for  any  values  you  want  from
   config.sh.

   You  should run makeSH from within your top-level directory and use the
   relative path to the file as an argument, so that the "Extracting  ..."
   line  printed  while  running  the produced .SH file later on will give
   that same path.

BUGS

   It could assume that variables from metaconfig's Glossary  need  to  be
   initialized in the first section, but I'm too lazy to make it do that.
