1 - Installing a package

I distribute an RPM package, available from the download area. This package should work on any system using RPM.

Depending on your operating system, a package may be available from an alternate source.

2 - Installing from source

sysfunc is a shell library, so it is easy to install :

• Download the last tar-gzipped package from the download area. Extract it in /opt/sysfunc.
• cd /opt/sysfunc
• Run 'make install'. This will insert the version string in the library and create the /usr/bin/sysfunc.sh symbolic link.

3 - Loading the library

When you want to load the sysfunc library in a shell script, insert the following line :

This line prevents the library to be loaded if it is already in memory and uses the symbolic link in /usr/bin to load the library through the current path.
