Open Source Unix Shell Frameworks

This project is an assistant for developers wanting to use one of Lua 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and/or 5.4, together with the PUC-Rio Tecgraf scientific/technical toolkit projects, on a range of GNU/Linux distributions. The Tecgraf projects are hosted on SourceForge: "im" (Image Manipulation) <https://sourceforge.net/projects/imtoolkit/> "cd" (Canvas Draw) <https://sourceforge.net/projects/canvasdraw/> "iup" (Toolkit for GUIs) <https://sourceforge.net/projects/iup/> Lua also comes out of PUC-Rio, and is a small, portable, fast, powerful, readable, flexible and free scripting/extension language. See: <https://www.lua.org/about.html>. This Assistant helps with installation (needs sudo), and non-sudo day-to-day project activities such as SVN updates and project patch/edit/build/run. The "hello, world" dialog box Bash/Lua script is two lines: #!/bin/bash ../support/play-lua-tec iup=require("iuplua"); iup.Message("MyApp", "hello, world")
