--- Bake --- Bake scripts into files. Executes @BAKE to the end of the line or @STOP within in any given file. You may have multi-line commands, by either including a leading @STOP or ending each line with a backslash. The execution takes place at the root of the target file, so if you have: `test/file.c', and then execution takes place at `test'. you may see a real example in the primary and only source file: `bake.c'. this is not targeted toward any language and should be fairly flexible, especially when multi-line comments are available. Binary files (files that contain characters < ' ' or > '~') are supported. A manpage is included: bake(1) --- Building --- Bootstrapping may be done with Shake, simply run `./shake ./bake.c' Or simply run `install.sh', you'll need to be a privileged user to install the files. See the file's content for more details regarding the installation. --- I/O Extension --- I/O provides various descriptive factors about the current context for the command, primarily the full and shortened filename, and the remaining arguments to the process. $@: the name of the executed file $*: the text of the filename before the last dot $+: the remaining arguments to Bake They are most useful for a template command, such as: @BAKE cc $@ -o $* $+ --- Options --- only one option may be in use at a time, and must come as the first argument. -h, --help: displays help message, similarly to empty input. -n, --dry-run: DRYRUN, does NOT run anything! --- Shake --- Bake was inspired by the Bash-based Shake utility (formerly eMake, he liked my suggestion for a name). It is included under authorization of it's creator. The original version of Shake may be found at: Bake includes a modified Shake, both in installation, and as a bootstrapper. The modified version includes all features of Bake with the exceptions of multi-line commands. It is not a replacement for Bake. Bake is licensed under the GPLv3-only, See LICENSE. Bake began on September 13th, 2023, and at this point in time, is complete.
