Hey there,

the current T2 scripts/ have their heritage in the big ROCK Linux 2.0 rewrite 
over 20 years ago.

After using them that long and new users and developers joining we realize it 
was overdue to modernize the T2 scrippt/ world.

But don’t worry, we will do it slow and hopefully without too many regressions 
;-)

We have two GH issues to track this:

        https://github.com/rxrbln/t2sde/issues/59
        https://github.com/rxrbln/t2sde/issues/60

We started to work on the first with a new (lightweight and prototyping) 
top-level “t2” frontend in the source tree. Currently it just wraps the 
scripts/ for testing, but in the long term the scripts/ will be refactored into 
sourced code modules. The new t2 CLI usage would then be something like:

./t2 install pkg # instead of scripts/Pkg-Emerge
./t2 build-target -cfg x # instead of scripts/Build-Target

This simple refactoring trick you make t2 look much more modern and in the long 
term we plan to fully replace the aging mine tarball archer in the install 
image w/ simply using ./t2 install and having it natively support such binary 
pkg upstream streams.

Comments and patches welcome!

I hope you like this transformative path,

        René
