gitdpkgname

NAME

gitdpkgname - GNU Interactive Tools - gitdpkgname helper script

SYNTAX

gitdpkgname [file...]

DESCRIPTION

gitdpkgname is a very small script that is used by gitfm(1) when using any of the ˆCˆD commands that expect a debian packagename.

For each argument that ends in .deb, gitdpkgname queries the named package for its name and prints it. All other arguments are printed unchanged.

This enables commands (e.g. ˆCˆDL) expecting a packagename to be given a .deb file, and the packagename will be extracted automatically.
