README.MAKEDEV,v 1.1.1.1 1995/02/22 19:09:12 faith Exp
Here is the original comment taken from the MAKEDEV script. One day,
I'll do this properly.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
This is my attempt at a MAKEDEV script. IMHO it cleans up many areas.
It can be used to determine the necessary info for a device without
actually creating it using the '-n' flag.
It makes less individual devices and tends to make classes of devices
(eg "MAKEDEV hda" will create "hda" and the 8 partitions; "MAKEDEV ptyp"
will create the ptyp[0-f] master and ttyp[0-f] slave devices).
If you are aware of any glaring omissions or errors, please let me know.
Also, if you are a developer who wants your devices supported by MAKEDEV,
let me know.
Thanks to Ian Jackson for the original help and encouragement.
