==== Description: ====
uqjau: framework of mostly bash and some perl: scripts, script
functions, and script m4 macros for a range of simple purposes,
divided into "packages" (directories) by category.
- Directory layout and tool configuration was influenced by
'slashpackage': http://cr.yp.to/slashpackage.html. There is a
directory w/basename 'commands' that you may place in your
PATH; it contains only symbolic links to scripts.
- No requirement for record on file system or in env vars of
where install tree is. Scripts figure this out. Does not
depend on a fixed name for top dir in install tree.
- The goal was to write the scripts so that the 'commands'
dir does not have to be in the PATH - scripts that are the
exception, are not located in the
uqjau tree, but depend on files in it.
- After a script determines path to root of the uqjau
install dir, it may source supporting (dependency) files in
the uqjau tree.
- Scripts should not depend on pre-existing env vars, so cron
jobs that run scripts should work w/o wrapper scripts.
- Scripts may only be invoked by: their basename ( assuming
the 'commands' dir is in the PATH ); by the fully qualified
pathname to the 'commands' or 'scommands' dir; or by
./COMMANDBASENAME - only if current working dir is the
'commands' dir. This limitation in the last case is due to
the logic used in most scripts that try to determine the
install dir for uqjau.
==== Other Comments: ====
Attempted to enforce my own notion of scripting best practices.
I have over 20 years of work or hobby experience writing and
maintaining shell scripts.
I lean towards sys admin work, and spend hours each day at the
bash commandline - these scripts support day to day work.
