News from Archetype's compiler

Hi,

As you may already know, I'm currently working on a script which is able to build an Archetype's configuration file, actually a kind of compiler. In order to do this, I'm working with JRuby : a JVM running implementation of the ruby programming language (probably the best implementation of Ruby right now).

The development progresses and the script is nearly up. It's an executable which gives you quite a lot of parameters related to your application : the destination's directory of your project, the engine you use, the template and the logger you need, and so on. For all of theses parameters, you've got to specify the absolute path for files and libs, then the script makes some merge between the original files and then, everything you need is available in your new project's directory.

I generated an help and a documentation to allow user to get started on a easy way.
I think there are clearly many bugs left yet and I work hard to eradicate them. Don't forget the script is in a beta version.

If you want to try it out, feel free to check it out using mercurial at :

The script names compiler.rb
