Designing
Dear all,

Do you guys use any tool to design shell scripts?. My requirement is to simplify the logic/design of shell scripts before you actually write it.
In other words i need to put the design i have in mind to words before i start writing it.

Thanks in advance.

Never, I just start writing code.

But if I had to... the only tool I would use would be a text editor to write some pseudocode.

The emacs editor has a shell-script mode that acts like a rudimentary IDE.

But the beauty of shell scripting is it's whipuptitude which shouldn't require too much forethought. That's a word invented by Larry Wall of Perl, but it is an excellent word for shell scripting too.

Thanks for the replies. I was thinking that there would be some modeling tool like think which some people use for java script. Any idea ?
