-# Shell script to automate the creation of new templates for xbps.
-# Only writes basic stuff into the template, if you need advanced stuff
-# you'll have to do that manually.
-#
-# At least it will fetch the distfile and compute the checksum, plus
-# other stuff for free... so it's not that bad, heh.
-#
-# Supports GNU configure, configure and perl module templates for now.
