NAME
cooktime - set file times SYNOPSIS
cooktime [ option... ] filename... cooktime -Help cooktime -VERSion DESCRIPTION
The cooktime program is used to set the modified time or access time of a file. This can be used to defend against unwanted logical dependencies when making "minor" changes to files. If no option is specified, the default action is as if "-Modify now" was specified. OPTIONS
The following options are understood. -Access date This option may be used to set the last-access time of the files. The date is relatively free-format; rember to use quotes to insulate spaces from the shell. -Modify date This option may be used to set the last-modify time of the files. The date is relatively free-format; rember to use quotes to insulate spaces from the shell. -Time-Stamp-Granularity seconds This option may be used to specify the granularity of the filesystem's timestamps, otherwise a default value of 1 second is used. -Report When use alone, produces a listing of access times and modify times for the named files. When used with -Access or -Modify, produces a listing of the changes made. -Help Give some information on how to use the cooktime command. Any other option will generate a diagnostic error. All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional. You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters. All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of both, case is not important. For example: the arguments "-help", "-HEL" and "-h" are all interpreted to mean the -Help option. The argument "-hlp" will not be understood, because consecutive optional characters were not supplied. Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on the command line. The GNU long option names are understood. Since all option names for cooktime are long, this means ignoring the extra leading '-'. The "--option=value" convention is also understood. EXIT STATUS
The cooktime command will exit with a status of 1 on any error. The cooktime command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors. COPYRIGHT

NAME
cook_bom - bill of materials SYNOPSIS
cook_bom [ option... ] dirname [ outfile ] cook_bom -Help cook_bom -VERSion DESCRIPTION
The cook_bom program is used to scan a directory and generate a cookbook fragment containing a bill of materials for that directory. It also includes a recursive reference, via an ``#include-cooked'' directive, to the bills of materials for nested directories. Output is sent to the standard output unless an output filename is specified. OPTIONS
The following options are understood: -DIRectory pathname This option may be used to specify a directory search path, similar to cook(1) [search_list] functionality. -Help Provide some help with using the cook_bom program. -IGnore string This option may be used to specify filename patterns to be ignored. It may be given as many times as required. -PREfix string This option may be manipulate the name of the manifest files. Defaults to the empty string if not set. -SUFfix string This option may be manipulate the name of the manifest files. Defaults to ``/manifest.cook if not set. -VERSion Print the version of the cook_bom program being executed. All other options will produce a diagnostic error. All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional. You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters. All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of both, case is not important. For example: the arguments "-help", "-HEL" and "-h" are all interpreted to mean the -Help option. The argument "-hlp" will not be under- stood, because consecutive optional characters were not supplied. Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on the command line. The GNU long option names are understood. Since all option names for cook_bom are long, this means ignoring the extra leading '-'. The "--option=value" convention is also understood. EXIT STATUS
The cook_bom command will exit with a status of 1 on any error. The cook_bom command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors. EXAMPLE
The intended use of this command is to automatically generate a project file manifest in an efficient way. If you have a cookbook of the form all_files_in_. = ; #include manifest.cook manifest = [all_files_in_.]; set fingerprint mkdir unlink; %0manifest.cook: ["if" [in "%0" ""] "then" "." "else" "%0"] { cook_bom [addprefix '--dir=' [search_list]] "--ignore='*~'" [need] [target] ; } At the end of this fragment, the manifest variable contains a complete list of all files in the directory tree. This variable may then be taken apart with the match_mask function to build ingredients lists. The constructed manifest.cook files work for both whole-project and recursive (not recommended) builds.
