Package: xmacro Version: 0.3pre-20000911-4 Severity: wishlist
'xmacro' looks to be useful for automating programs that don't play well with stdio, but there's no man page telling how to use it, and the examples given in '/usr/share/doc/xmacro/examples' seem intended for 'Xwindow' experts. I'd like a man page with some examples of simplest possible cases, e.g. a script like: #!/bin/sh # foo.sh -- ask for input, then respond. read -p "Type y or n" k case "$k" in [Yy]*) echo "Yeah!" ;; [Nn]*) echo "Naw!" ;; *) echo "Indecisive..." ;; esac ...how would one automate (or capture) input for 'foo.sh' running on a local 'xterm'? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Versions of packages xmacro depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:4.0.1-9 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.0.1-9 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System protocol client li ii libxtst6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System event recording an ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System client libraries m xmacro recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
