Lib-Install is an installer script for Amiga shared libraries that is highly
modular to be reusable for other installer scripts.
Lib-Install features:
- Follows the V43 Installer Style Guide
- Correctly supports the different user levels
- Install new/update mode
- Uninstallation
- Supports Installers prior to V43
- Highly automated
- Very flexible
- Very intelligent (for an installer-script ;-)
- It uses WrapGuide (if present) for the AmigaGuide® documentation if running
under a pre V39 system.
- Autodetects the CPU/FPU
- Autodetects the OS version
- Autodetects existing files within the distribution archive
- Installs the optimal 68010-68060 binary if available
- It supports the following languages:
English, German
- Supports source code installation for the following programming
languages:
C, Assembler, Amiga-E, Modula II, Oberon, ARexx
- It can be reused by (hopefully) many other Amiga shared libraries since the
authors of shared libraries need to change only a few things:
* The #copyright variable
* The #min_os_version and #min_os_revision variables
* The #language variable
* The P_CustomExists, P_CustomInstall and P_CustomUninstall procedures
* The 'APPNAME' tooltype within the Lib-Install icon
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This package may not be included on any further Aminet CD-ROMs unless authors
contributing their software to the CD-ROM, (without mentioning distribution
"NoCD") are granted a copy of the CD *completely* *free* *of* *charge*.
The Meeting Pearls IV CD-ROM demonstrates that a Freebie policy is also
possible with "very-low-budget" CD-ROMs (*), so Aminet should quickly
re-establish the same Freebie policy it used up to Aminet CD 13.
(*) Suggested retail price for MP4 is DM 14,95/US$ 12/£ 8.95.
