ExtUtils::MM_MacOS - once produced Makefiles for MacOS Classic
SYNOPSIS
# MM_MacOS no longer contains any code. This is just a stub.
DESCRIPTION
Once upon a time, MakeMaker could produce an approximation of a correct Makefile on MacOS Classic (MacPerl). Due to a lack of maintainers,
this fell out of sync with the rest of MakeMaker and hadn't worked in years. Since there's little chance of it being repaired, MacOS
Classic is fading away, and the code was icky to begin with, the code has been deleted to make maintenance easier.
Those interested in writing modules for MacPerl should use Module::Build which works better than MakeMaker ever did.
Anyone interested in resurrecting this file should pull the old version from the MakeMaker CVS repository and contact makemaker@perl.org,
but we really encourage you to work on Module::Build instead.

Module::Build::Platform::MacOS - Builder class for MacOS platforms
DESCRIPTION
The sole purpose of this module is to inherit from "Module::Build::Base" and override a few methods. Please see Module::Build for the
docs.
Overridden Methods
new()
MacPerl doesn't define $Config{sitelib} or $Config{sitearch} for some reason, but $Config{installsitelib} and $Config{installsitearch}
are there. So we copy the install variables to the other location
make_executable()
On MacOS we set the file type and creator to MacPerl so it will run with a double-click.
dispatch()
Because there's no easy way to say "./Build test" on MacOS, if dispatch is called with no arguments and no @ARGV a dialog box will pop
up asking what action to take and any extra arguments.
Default action is "test".
ACTION_realclean()
Need to unlock the Build program before deleting.

Hi folks yet another bizarre piece of code that is Apple OSX 10.12.x to at least 10.14.1 specific.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
