app-vim/cream needs VIM_PLUGIN_HELPTEXT or VIM_PLUGIN_HELPFILES set. Would be nice if someone who uses the plugin regularly could contribute.
Created attachment 39311 [details, diff] cream-0.30-r2.ebuild--help_message.patch Hi Ciaran, Here is my attempt for a short HELPTEXT that mainly points to the local html doc. I've also reworked a bit the einfos about dictionaries and LINGUAS. I've moved them to pkg_setup so that they are displayed before the package gets installed, and added an "epause" so that the user can cancel the installation if he wants to change his LINGUAS variable after reading the explanation.
Created attachment 39313 [details, diff] vim-plugin.eclass--fix_HELPTEXT_display.patch And here is a small patch for vim-plugin.eclass that makes it display correctly HELPTEXTs that contain special chars (I've used an '\t' in the one for Cream) and spaces at the begining of some lines.
HELPTEXT added in, cheers. I also moved the spell einfo stuff to pkg_setup as you suggested. I implemented it slightly differently to make it easier to change in the future. Regarding the special characters thing... Tabs in einfo that aren't used to line things up kinda give me the creeps, so I've left that out for now. Thanks again.
Oops, thought I'd closed this...
