DESCRIPTION:

Abt is a simple(maybe not well written) Python scrypt with the goal to make installing programs from tarball,much easier than before.

WHAT IT DOES:
Abt takes a name of tar archive (example: cool-game.tar.xz) and extract,run ./configure or ./CONFIGURE,runs make and if requested make install too.

PRECONDITIONS AND MISSING FEATURES:
Since ABT is a new tool,it has some preconditions to work almost fine.
1) You can't specify where you want an archive to be extracted and compiled,but you will be able with next release
2) You MUST have installed tar and python3 in your Linux box
3) For now it only support tar.xz,tar.gz,tar.
4)I'm just a student who likes to help Linux community when possible,so you cannot except professional applications from me.

IF YOU WANT CONTACT,HELP OR INSULT ME:
send an email to lorenzoguardingo@gmail.com or a message here on sourceforge.net

USAGE:
Decompress abt-0.0.1 archive and run:
python3 abt.py etc...

SYNTAX:
abt --path <target archive=""> (--install)

if no arguments are passed,you'll see a message like this one.
--path or -p: tells to abt where tarball is.
--install: tells to abt to run also "make install".
