Hi,
As some of you may have seen back in the 1.1 days, I had a kernel configuration
file generator. I've now rewritten this for 2.0 using curseperl for a
snazzy interface. I will be shortly writting a make file to allow a user
to generate curse perl with our standard perl sources (not hard).
Question: Do I have to FTP my program even though its fairly small (call it
100k) for a package?
Or can we stick in contrib again? It is a Berkeley style copyright.
Question: If so, can we find a place for it (My link can get flaky...)
I'll be genning a new version for 2.1 once we have settled on the devices
and how the config file will look.
What it does:
Give the user menus for each sub-section
Write a legal config file for the options selected (It does do some checking
(e.g. puts in ALLOW_CONFLICT_IOADDR if you pick the PS/2 mouse driver))
What it does not do:
Most of the esoteric options and such are NOT covered (e.g. XNS and PORTAL).
If need those, then you know how to generate a config file manually.
Does anyone think this is a good idea???
Gary
P.S: This is another project that is due to my distribution with my POS
software.
