Bug 27947 – pep-2.8 (new ebuild)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Steingrim Dovland 2003-09-04 12:22:08 UTC]

Attached you will find an ebuild for pep, a general purpose file filter. It may
be used to expand/compress tabs; convert to and from several character sets; to
interprete ANSI escape sequences; and to remove unwanted line noise from files.

I've also attached a patch to fix some things in the Makefile.

I suggest sys-apps/ or app-misc/

Hi, sorry about the delay. I emerged your ebuild and it worked fine.
However, I wanted to change a bit of your ebuild. I removed `inherit
eutils` because epatch is now part of Portage (the time you submitted 
the ebuild here, the line was necessary. So don't worry about it).
Also, I changed `dodir /usr/share/pep; cp ...` to `insinto
/usr/share/pep; doins Filter/*` as it looks much clean if we use doins.
Please use insinto/doins if you can write so. (doins doesn't support
recursive operation yet, so you need cp -R in some cases) I added
the ebuild to CVS with these modifications.

I would often use expand/unexpand/fold to tidy text files but pep
seems to do all the jobs I needed for these utilities. Thanks for the
contribution ;)
