sparforte Documentation

Some Fossies usage hints in advance:

  1. To see the Doxygen generated documentation please click on one of the items in the steelblue colored "quick index" bar above or use the side panel at the left which displays a hierarchical tree-like index structure and is adjustable in width.
  2. If you want to search for something by keyword rather than browse for it you can use the client side search facility (using Javascript and DHTML) that provides live searching, i.e. the search results are presented and adapted as you type in the Search input field at the top right.
  3. Doxygen doesn't incorporate all member files but just a definable subset (basically the main project source code files that are written in a supported language). So to search and browse all member files you may visit the Fossies sparforte-2.5-src.tar.bz2 contents page and use the Fossies standard member browsing features (also with source code highlighting and additionally with optional code folding).

SparForte README File

Ken O. Burtch is the author of "Linux Shell Scripting with Bash" and former IT Architect with the "Webkinz" brand websites. With nearly 20 years experience in the IT business, including many years with multi-billion dollar companies, Ken was concerned over hard to scale, hard to maintain scripting languages, he created SparForte as a tool to solve real business problems. Based a ISO standard proven effective for large, mission-critical projects, SparForte is designed for fast development of large projects while, at the same time, providing easier maintenance and bug removal.

Licensing

COPYING contains information about the GPL licence. The SparForte documentation is located in the doc/ directory.

AdaCGI is released under the GPL licence. The only changes were to add the "-q" flag in the makefile for quieter makes.

Installation

If you have downloaded the binary version, you should have the spar binary and the SparForte manual in the doc directory and sample scripts in the examples directory.

To install SparForte as your login shell, copy the "spar" file to the /usr/local/bin directory (or type "make install" to do this for you). Then change the /etc/passwd file accordingly. Alternatively, change /etc/shells to allow users to select spar as a shell with chsh. You will need to be the superuser to copy or edit these files.

If you have downloaded the SparForte sources, the INSTALL file contains instructions for compiling the sources.
