Re: [E-devel] E17 installer script.

[Luchezar P. <luc...@gm...>]

Well, there are some other scripts for that purpose, such as Raster's
get_e.sh or easy_e17.sh. I've seen script for download/install E17 from CVS
even written in Python, but never in Ruby. So, thank you. Ruby fans will
like it and maybe will help you to improve it.
Also, you may be interested in EFL's Ruby bindings to write one very nice
GUI app for us. :-)

P.S.
What's the license? BSD?

Cheers.
