Somewhere on the ToDo list I wrote for Michelle on the OSolDevCont2007 were AFAIK two items: 1. Create a /usr/docs/-directory hiearacy for the docs folks at Sun/OpenSolaris.org <many_more_items> 9xx. Create a script which can be called by package postinstall scripts which builds the matching "windex"/etc. files automatically (note that this is not part of the "postinstall" script itself to make sure that modification to the index generation scripts are decoupled from the "postinstall" script) ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;)
