The basic idea of the 'describe' package +(the descc "compiler" and describe itself) is to provide a quick, easy +way of accessing information related to the utilities which so many +different people are releasing these days. The reason it sat around on +my harddrive so long is I was having qualms about its designated role in +life. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted it to do. Well, I've decided +to KISS for now: descc simply compiles the utility list, which I maintain, +into a (very) simple "database" located in /usr/local/lib/. The companion +utility 'describe' is used to fetch information about a particular utility +from this "database". + + descc is fairly limited, as is the "database" format itself. Part of the +KISS (or it wouldn't be out now) design philosophy ;). Usage is simple: +when you get a new listing (I'll provide monthly updates), simply "descc +" where is the name of the newly released update. +descc will simply write over the old database and replace it with the +new (note: no appendages allowed). + + As always, coments are appreciated. And, moreso than on other projects, +I'd appreciate some comments about the direction I'm going in, suggestions +as to where to take this, etc. I have a feeling that some fields in the +format (eg, FTP:) are rather useless, and I'd like to know what you guys +out there think. + +James Brookes +jamesb@ecst.csuchico.edu
