|---|
| 7 | I'd like to come up with some file naming and configuration |
|---|
| 8 | conventions that will work in DOS, Unix, and Mac environments. At |
|---|
| 9 | Cygnus, we are creating a single freely available K4 source tree that |
|---|
| 10 | works on many Unixes, Windows, and Mac. It currently works on Unixes. |
|---|
| 11 | (To get a copy, send mail to info@cygnus.com requesting our Kerberos |
|---|
| 12 | release. It's in a hidden FTP location due to export control.) |
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 | My plan, which we have used successfully in the GNU software, is to |
|---|
| 15 | make sure that all filenames are unique if you take the first 8 chars |
|---|
| 16 | and the first 3 after the dot. No files have more than a single dot |
|---|
| 17 | in them. We don't restrict file names to just 8.3 characters, since |
|---|
| 18 | doing so would impact readability for the (99.9%) of the developers |
|---|
| 19 | who are on Unix or Mac, where long file names are fine. |
|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | There's an additional complication that names longer than 14 |
|---|
| 22 | characters present problems to old System V Unix and to `ar' on Unix. |
|---|
| 23 | DJ Delorie's excellent `doschk' program points out all these problems. |
|---|
| 24 | (ftp:/prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/doschk-1.1.tar.gz). |
|---|
| 25 | |
|---|
| 26 | Here's my proposal for the include directory. The largest bunch are config |
|---|
| 27 | files only referenced from osconf.h. These I renamed freely to be more |
|---|
| 28 | indicative of what they're actually for. Four files were unused. The |
|---|
| 29 | only truly painful rename would be <mit-copyright.h>, which truncates fine |
|---|
| 30 | to <mit-copy.h> for DOS, but is 15 characters and blows System V. I |
|---|
| 31 | opted to leave it that way anyway, since it is a completely symbolic file |
|---|
| 32 | and contains no code or definitions anyway. |

| 102 | I've supplied Unix shell scripts in ../lib/krb, which use the table |
|---|
| 103 | from `ren.msg' in the current directory, for moving: |
|---|
| 104 | ren-pl10.sh V4 pl10 filenames to proposed names for converting old trees |
|---|
| 105 | ren-pc.sh V4 MIT PC names to proposed names for converting old trees |
|---|
| 106 | ren2long.sh truncated names to proposed names for moving DOS->unix |
|---|
| 107 | ren2dos.sh proposed names to truncated names for unix->DOS names |
|---|
| 108 | |
|---|
| 109 | There's also shell scripts to produce sed scripts for converting Makefiles |
|---|
| 110 | and documentation. You use them like: |
|---|
| 111 | ./sed-pl10.sh >/tmp/sed |
|---|
| 112 | sed -f /tmp/sed <Makefile >newMakefile |
|---|
| 113 | sed-pl10.sh V4 pl10 filenames to proposed names for converting old trees |
|---|
| 114 | sed-pc.sh V4 MIT PC names to proposed names for converting old trees |
|---|
| 115 | |
|---|
| 116 | I'll also supply a DOS script for moving: |
|---|
| 117 | ren-pc.bat V4 MIT PC names to proposed names for converting old trees |
|---|
| 118 | |
|---|
| 119 | And an MPW script for moving |
|---|
| 120 | ren-pl10.mpw V4 pl10 filenames to proposed names for converting old trees |
