I think having a wiki page where we share our little handy scripts with others might be useful.
So I'd propose to have a set of pages like so: Scripts > Windows | Mac | Linux I'd also be tempted to make a script for setting up corinthia from scratch, ie, something that check for presence of the correct required libraries and downloads stuff that is missing / out of date, without people have to hunt around everywhere in order to find the right versions. Example: After typing the same thing repeatedly, I made this script this morning: #! /bin/bash # Download and build a new Corinthia on linux, making a TAGS file for # emacs assuming that you already have all the supporting libraries # installed and your git set up with your comitter id. # # Usage: build-corinthia <name of directory you'd like> if test -z "$1"; then printf 'Please supply a directory name.\n'; exit; fi if test -e "$1"; then printf 'The directory already exists.\n'; exit; fi mkdir $1 cd $1 git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-corinthia.git cd incubator-corinthia/ mkdir "build" find . -name "*.[ch]" -print0 | xargs -0 etags - cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" $pwd make That may not suit everyone, but it saves a lot on typing, and I can use that time to go make coffee instead and come back to a ready made playground :-) G -- Visit my Coding Diary: http://gabriela-gibson.blogspot.com/
