[Fink-devel] New pathsetup.sh

[Martin Costabel]

I have written a new pathsetup utility "pathsetup.sh" that is meant to 
replace the "pathsetup.command" script. It does the same things as the 
old version, but it has a new interface: Following hints by Bill Scott, 
I replaced the Terminal.app window by AppleScript-generated dialog 
windows. This should eliminate the bug where the pathsetup.command 
hijacked the Terminal.app windows. Plus, it is more newbie-friendly (or 
so I hope).

Please test it, so it can go into the new binary installer. It is in my 
exp directory on CVS.

Another difference to the previous version is that it is no longer 
double-clickable, but I have the impression that this was never 
important anyway. The pathsetup script is run in two ways: Either by the 
Fink binary installer, where it is called from a perl script via the 
"system" function, or directly from the command line. In both cases, the 
shell script in /sw/bin is used, not the double-clickable contraption on 
the surface of the Fink Installer dmg. The latter would just disappear 
with the new version.
