Thanks! (that was quick!).

I'll fix the licensing for term/ in the next release.

Hi,

I approved your project.

(Note: you should precise the licensing terms for files in term/)

Registration Details


  • Name: GNU Interactive Tools
  • System Name:  gnuit
  • Type: Official GNU software
  • License: GNU General Public License v2 or later (Actually GPL v3 or later, the menu doesn't provide that as an option. Documentation is GFDL 1.2 or later)





Description:

gnuit (GNU Interactive Tools) is a set of interactive text-mode tools, closely integrated with the shell. 

It contains an extensible file system browser, an
ascii/hex file viewer, a process viewer/killer and some other related utilities and shell scripts.  It can be used to increase the speed and efficiency of most of the daily tasks such as copying and moving files and directories, invoking editors, compressing and uncompressing files, creating and expanding archives, compiling  programs, sending mail, etc.  It looks nice, has colors (if the
 standard ANSI color sequences are supported) and is user-friendly.

One of the main advantages of gnuit is its flexibility.  It is not limited to a given set of commands.  The configuration file can be easily enhanced, allowing the user to add new commands or file operations, depending on its needs or preferences.



Other Software Required:

terminfo or termcap or ncurses or curses


Other Comments:

gnuit was formerly known as git

It has been renamed as of this release, earlier versions
are at ftp.gnu.org/gnu/git/ although I'm about to ask for that
to be moved to /gnu/gnuit/old and replaced with a symlink

I'm adopting it after a long hiatus




Tarball URL:
