2011-12-23contrib/*: Support the "--help" and "--version" optionsLukas Fleischer1-2/+8
Add "--help"/"-h" and "--version"/"-V" support to all contrib scripts. Also, update scripts that used "-v" as a short option for "--version" and use "-V" for the sake of consistency. Additionally: * Move version and usage messages to separate convenience functions in all scripts. * Add a workaround to paccache to support "--help" and "--version". This should be replaced by a proper POSIX-compliant command line parser that supports long options in a future patch. * Add a "$myver" variable to all scripts and use it whenever we refer to the program version (e.g. in version messages). Also, use the pacman version number everywhere instead of using a different versioning scheme for each contrib script. This is achieved by adding a "PACKAGE_VERSION" placeholder that is replaced by sed(1) when the script is built. * Ensure we always return with exit status 0 if "--help" is used and return with exit status 1 if we display the usage message due to invalid arguments. * Add "AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = std-options" and add all scripts to "bin_SCRIPTS" to make `make installcheck` check that installed scripts actually support the "--help" and "--version" options.

2011-12-07contrib/*: Hardcode program namesLukas Fleischer1-5/+5
Add a read-only variable "$myname" to every contrib script and hardcode program names instead of relying on "$0". The variable name "$myname" was chosen because it is already used in pacman and because we use "$myver" to specify the program version in the official scripts.

2011-06-30fix vim syntax highlighting of .sh filesFlorian Pritz1-1/+1
vim recognises what type of shell script it's dealing with by looking at the shebang. If detection fails it falls back to sh which doesn't support some bash features. Adding a normal, possibly broken, shebang which gets fixed by the Makefile allows vim to detect bash syntax.

2010-10-13Fix bash shell location checkDan McGee1-1/+1
BASH is defined when you are actually using bash during configure, which sucks because it ends up being '/bin/sh', messing up all of our scripts. Change the name of the variable we use in configure, and also ensure we get a full path to the executable by using AC_PATH_PROGS rather than AC_CHECK_PROGS. Finally, change the variable name everywhere we use it. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
