[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.1nb1, Package name: tclticker-1.1nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

TCLTicker is a simple stock tickertape, using HTTP requests to fetch
quotes. It includes 'mailquote', which can email quotes. TclTicker
uses a plug-in architecture for quote services. Currently, quote
service modules are written for Yahoo (one for U.S. markets, another
for Euro markets) and Quote.com. User configuration includes tuning
the ticker scroll rate and data refresh dates, fonts, http proxy, smtp
host, rounding, always on top, and ticker symbol lists.

Log message:
finance/tclticker: remove the package

This package got its stock quotes from web sites that were active around
2000 and that no longer exist.  It had not resolved the PREFIX
placeholder, which meant it could not even ask the web sites for the
quotes.  Therefore chances are high that this package is not used by
anyone.

Log message:
all: replace SUBST_SED with the simpler SUBST_VARS

pkglint -Wall -r --only "substitution command" -F

With manual review and indentation fixes since pkglint doesn't get that
part correct in every case.

Log message:
*: Move SUBST_STAGE from post-patch to pre-configure

Performing substitutions during post-patch breaks tools such as mkpatches,
making it very difficult to regenerate correct patches after making changes,
and often leading to substituted string replacements being committed.

Log message:
Second round of explicit pax dependencies. As reminded by tnn@,
many packages used to use ${PAX}. Use the common way of directly calling
pax, it is created as tool after all.
