# Packaging simexec.c

## License
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Simexec is Public Domain so there are basically no barriers when it comes to
|
||
|
|
licensing. And if you somehow violate my already-forfeited copyright, I promise
|
||
|
|
I won't sue you.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Files
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Simexec is a single C file (`simexec.c`) that builds to a single executable,
|
||
|
|
which should be named `simexec` and placed in a user-accessible binaries
|
||
|
|
directory. A `Makefile` is provided as courtesy but isn't really necessary.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `src/simexec` directory can be moved to a system sources directory if you
|
||
|
|
wish to keep the source on hand; it doesn't reference anything else in the
|
||
|
|
repository.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The included manual page, `simexec.1` can be placed in the appropriate manual
|
||
|
|
pages directory. If it displays weirdly feel free to e-mail me and I'll attempt
|
||
|
|
to fix it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Compilation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
On systems that provide `<sysexits.h>`, the following is all that's needed:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
cc -o simexec simexec.c
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you're not sure whether your system provides `<sysexits.h>`, try it and see.
|
||
|
|
If it doesn't work, compile `simexec.c` with the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
cc -DEX_USAGE=1 -o simexec simexec.c
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other than `<sysexits.h>` simexec(1) only relies on headers found in the C
|
||
|
|
standard library. Outside of POSIX environments `simexec.c` probably won't work
|
||
|
|
but it wouldn't be of much use anyway.
