Re: Install run-help and *.zwc files system wide in build system



Bart Schaefer <schaefer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
> Convert generate-help.sh into perl

This makes sense.

In order to avoid problems on systems without symlinks
and to solve problems with relative paths, I think it is
most useful to patch the helpfiles script directly.
I have done so in the appended patch.

Now the generated directory Doc/help and files Doc/help.txt can
just be included into the source tarball - they will not be
regenerated if they already exist: Perl, man, and colcrt/col
are not required in this case.

Since I did not completely understand how the tarball is
being created, the actual inclusion into the tarball is
still missing.

The appended patch should be used *instead* of my previous one.
