Change tup configuration files such that they have sensible names

Open zesterer opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Tupfile, Tuprules.tup and tup.config?

Perhaps, if possible, these could be changed to more sensible names? For example,

make.tup rules.tup config.tup

makes a lot more sense.

Thanks for the feedback! rules.tup would've probably been a better name instead of Tuprules.tup. However, I don't think make.tup makes sense, because it doesn't have anything to do with 'make'. And tup.config is an ini-style file, so naming it with a .tup extension would incorrectly assign it the wrong filetype.

This smells like windows file naming conventions. Git config has ini file semantics and it's not named *.ini. IMHO *.tup would be a more sensible solution. I've only used tup for a very short time but I think local.tup global.tup and config.tup sounds better.

maybe something like

Tupfile Tuprules (Tuprules.tup) Tupinit (Tupfile.ini) Tupconfig (tup.config)
