Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 7767
Generate a Posix sh compatible environment settings file
Last modified: 2003-02-24 14:16:01 UTC
This is a patch I would like to apply to make it possible to develop OOo from within a sh-compatible shell. If USE_SHELL is tcsh, it generates a second settings file called $(outfile).sh containing the environment commands in sh syntax. I created the file in parallel so that it does not break any existing scripts, which I guess changing SHELL or USE_SHELL may do because the syntax of shell commands in the makefiles would need to be adjusted. The complete removal of the tcsh dependency is an issue that would take longer to complete; this is an interim measure that makes it possible to work on the command line within sh/ksh/bash.

Hi Ken, I've just been reading discussion on dev@ from August and saw you said you're willing to manage patches in config_office (I was thinking you were only doing #3660 and friends). So I gladly assign this to you ;)
Patch has been tested and applied.
Verified & released in 1.0.2; closing
