Abstract

attached is a script which i anticipate will be but one part of an AutomatedBuild and DailyBuildAndSmokeTest toolchain. it could be integrated in a PluginsInstaller, as well as TWikiUpgradeGuide? and, naturally, a TWikiInstaller.

Script

modify $Config->{local_cache} to specify where addons should be downloaded to (default is downloads/contribs)

Will, can you please do me a huge favour, and describe in the abstract what this script actually does? (basically a functional spec?)

and the same on the other topics?

it's probably the biggest reason i've never looked at them to date :(, sorry

This is already implemented in the configure script
