Bug#304509: ITP: libcmd-ruby -- library for building line-oriented command interpreters in Ruby



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: David Nusinow <dnusinow@debian.org>

* Package name    : libcmd-ruby
  Version         : 0.7.2
  Upstream Author : Marcel Molina Jr. <http://vernix.org/marcel/>
* URL             : http://code.vernix.org/cmd/

  Description     : library for building line-oriented command interpreters in Ruby

This is a library for building line-oriented command interpreters in Ruby.
Simply inherit from cmd's Cmd class, and methods whose names start with do_
become interactive commands. cmd is inspired by the Python library  of the
same name, but offers a distinctive Ruby feel and several additional
features.

-----------

Note: I have an ITP open on libformatr-ruby (#295171) and both this library
and formatr are very small, so I am hesitant to put them in their own
packages. I plan instead to create an aggregate package (libruby-extras or
something) with non-standard ruby libs that are helpful. If anyone would
like to add some small ruby libs to this package and co-maintain it with
me, please let me know so we can set up an alioth project for it.
