execline is a (non-interactive) scripting language, like sh; but its
|
|
syntax is quite different from a traditional shell syntax. The
|
|
execlineb program is meant to be used as an interpreter for a text
|
|
file; the other commands are essentially useful inside an execlineb
|
|
script.
|
|
|
|
execline is as powerful as a shell: it features conditional loops,
|
|
getopt-style option handling, filename globbing, and more. Meanwhile,
|
|
its syntax is far more logic and predictable than the shell's syntax,
|
|
and has no security issues.

NOTE:
|
|
Upstream recommends building skarnet.org softwares with static libraries
|
|
as most of skarnet.org softwares are small enough that using shared
|
|
libraries are generally not worth using. Therefore, by default, shared
|
|
libraries are not built and binaries are linked against the static
|
|
versions of the skarnet.org libraries.
|
|
|
|
If you want to also build the shared libraries, pass BUILD_SHARED=yes
|
|
environment variable to the SlackBuild script like below:
|
|
|
|
BUILD_SHARED=yes ./execline.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
Similarly, to avoid building the static libraries, you can pass
|
|
BUILD_STATIC=no to the script. For example, to only build the shared
|
|
libraries and not the static ones, you can do something like:
|
|
|
|
BUILD_SHARED=yes BUILD_STATIC=no ./execline.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
If you just want to build and use skarnet.org softwares, building only
|
|
the static libraries should be sufficient.
|
|
|
|
If you want the binaries to be linked against the shared versions of the
|
|
skarnet.org libraries, pass LINK_SHARED=yes to the script.
