I had the same question but it was answered to my satisfaction in [PATCH v3 0/1]. Quoting from that: >>> [I]f anyone wants to have function names like >>> 'readme.gentoo-r2_pkg_postinst', then we can go with that. Convinced me! greadme's /just/ fine, thankyou! =:^) (Tho purely bikeshedding I'd prefer g2readme or gen2readme. Which FWIW would match my gentoo bug shortcut g2b/g2bug...) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
