I did this a couple of days ago and came to the same conclusion.
I updated both the Zend Framework Standard Incuabtor and Core
checkouts I
use, and checked out Ralph's ZendTool branch alongside these. After
updating
my php.ini to add the branch's /library directory to the
include_path, and
adding that ZF_PATH environment var to my system, I finished up by
adding
the path to the new /bin directory holding the zf script (zf.bat if
you're
on Windows) to PATH.
The first command I made: zf show version
Unfortunately this doesn't work - Zend_Console from the Incubator is
missing
a Zend_Console_Context_Interface class which doesn't exist anywhere. I
commented out it's require statement and the class implements phrase
to
proceed.
I removed the incubator and got something to work. To be honest, i
really don't trust incubator code to do anything most of the time...
I'm hoping to have some time to see if I can help tackle the "big
picture" issues this weekend/early next week. It seems obvious to me
that we should start with a list of desired functionality and an idea
of how the command line syntax should look. We can then follow that on
with some notes on how to customise what happens when you run any
given function.
