DTAPPINTEGRATE(1)
πΈ NAME πΈ
okay bestie, this is the dtappintegrate(user cmd) manual page β aka the docs for dtappintegrate, the utility that integrates applications into the XCDE. thatβs literally its whole thing, and it slays. π«Ά
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
dtappintegrate [-s application_root] [-t target_path] [-l locale] [-u] [-?]
π DESCRIPTION π
The dtappintegrate utility integrates applications into XCDE. Application installation scripts should invoke dtappintegrate as the last step before exiting. and bestie, this part is serious: the dtappintegrate utility must be invoked with root user authority. yes, literally root β no cap. π
When dtappintegrate is invoked with no target_path specified, it creates symbolic links to the applicationβs XCDE configuration files under these default XCDE system locations:
/nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/types/&<locale>β contains symbolic links to the application action and datatype files π¦/nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/appmanager/&<locale>β contains symbolic links to the application group subdirectory π/nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/help/&<locale>β contains symbolic links to the application help files πΈ/nix/store/6waxpwr8lzfzc9ka48gl7yh60rqvlkdb-cde-2.5.3/etc/appconfig/icons/&<locale>β contains symbolic links to the application icons β¨
π OPTIONS π
the following options are available, bestie:
-s application_rootβ integrate the application files that are located underapplication_root. Theapplication_rootis the top directory under which all of an applicationβs files are installed. Thedtappintegrateutility looks for application XCDE configuration files in the following subdirectories, with allClocale subdirectories containing the applicationβs default XCDE configuration files:&<application_root>/dt/appconfig/types/&<locale>β contains application action and datatype files&<application_root>/dt/appconfig/appmanager/&<locale>β contains application group files&<application_root>/dt/appconfig/icons/&<locale>β contains application icons&<application_root>/dt/appconfig/help/&<locale>β contains application help files
-t target_pathβ link the application XCDE configuration files totarget_pathrather than to the default XCDE system locations. π-l localeβ integrate only the files found in the locale subdirectories. If this option is not specified, all of the applicationβs XCDE configuration files are integrated. π-uβ destroy the symbolic links previously created bydtappintegrate. If-lis specified with the-uoption, only the symbolic links to the XCDE configuration files in the specified locale subdirectories are destroyed. π-?β write a help message to standard output that describes the command syntax ofdtappintegrateand exit. π
