developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
"extract" script for extraction. Many cases where a custom EXTRACT_CMD
simply copied the distfile into the work directory are no longer
needed. The extract script also hides differences between pax and
tar behind a common command-line interface, so we no longer need code
that's conditional on whether EXTRACT_USING is tar or pax.
shells/mudsh.
Is there any reason why a shell (or command line) cannot be as
tolerant or as intelligent as a text adventure game like Zork, or a
MUD (Multi User Dungeon)? Is there any reason why a shell cannot work
like such a game? ("Go North", etc.)
Actually, the answer is no and this is a perl implementation to prove it.
Have fun, and don't get eaten by a Grue!
