I've updated all spkg's so that they now have an hg repo with the directory structure based on the one listed above. Comments and suggestions are welcomed. You can see them here: http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/dfdeshom/custom/spkg/ One note: I would prefer that READMET.txt be kept as SAGE.txt (or renamed to something else) because then it would be clear that modifications were made to the spkg. I tend to ignore README.txt's anyway because they don't tell you why you should read them. On 6/1/07, Brian Granger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > 2.

Managing this without the associated > directory structure is a pain. Are you talking about the scripts in SAGE_ROOT/local/bin ? Because they are under version control (this is where sage-env lives too). didier --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
