DESCRIPTION

Snaputil does several utility functions for snapper programs. Currently snaputil creates an empty project with a sample MAIN window. In the future a reverse compiler will be added.

The skeleton project created can be used as a starting point for snapper projects. The project will contain a MAIN.module directory along with the header directory. A generic startup script will be provided along with a starting glade file.

  % snaputil -n -d sample
  % ls -R sample
  sample:
  MAIN.module/  header/

  sample/MAIN.module:
  scripts/  widget/

  sample/MAIN.module/scripts:
  999_startup.pl

  sample/MAIN.module/widget:
  MAIN.glade

  sample/header:
  project.options  start_script.pl

The following commands will create the project and display the sample window.

  % snaputil -n -d sample
    <.. output messages ..>
  % snapmake -d sample -f sample.pl -c
  % perl sample.pl

The sample hello world window will be displayed.
