I have thought of that before but the problem is that Github attachs git version (like 20-something hex characters) to the compressed directory (theProgram-09ABDEADBEEF012345) in the tarballs and it's not as obvious to know which directory that the tarball has extracted to. So a script would not at least do it reliably and I personally don't like to do something like ls | grep theProgram | sed .... | cd ... | cp .... because theere are so many things that could go wrong with it? ----------------------------------------------------------------- To get off this list, send email to [email protected] with Subject: unsubscribe -----------------------------------------------------------------
