The Featureless Linux Library stable version 0.6.3 is released.
This release contains breaking changes in the Featureless Make program to address functionality that is missing but should, if not must, be available.
This primarily adds documentation and fixes a small number of bugs found.
Added the following stand alone programs:
- fss_status_code
- status_code
There are now man pages for all of the programs.
These are manually crafted.
The Featureless Make program has two new features that are important enough to break the "featureless" concept as an exception to the rule.
The Featureless Make program must be able to install settings files and documentation files.
The documentation directory now exists.
This is similar to the documents directory but is entirely focused on documentation that is installed onto the system.
The documents directory might be synonymous with the standard share directory and the documentation directory might be synonymous with the share/man or share/docs directories.
The FLL install scripts is also updated to handle the installation of the settings and documentation files.
The Feeatureless Make program now supports the ability to specify a named section on the command line to be able to reasonably act as an alternative to GNU Make.
It is now possible to create an "install" section.
The user could then run "fake install" in a similar manner to how "make install" works.
The core reserved words are never run in this way.
These core reserved words are "build", "clean", "make", and "skeleton".
The following are changes since the 0.6.2 stable release.
