Patch against set_soenv.in from SRX643_OO none

Description chris 2002-09-17 13:31:26 UTC
This is a patch I would like to apply to make it possible to develop OOo from
within a sh-compatible shell.  If USE_SHELL is tcsh, it generates a second
settings file called $(outfile).sh containing the environment commands in sh syntax.

I created the file in parallel so that it does not break any existing scripts,
which I guess changing SHELL or USE_SHELL may do because the syntax of shell
commands in the makefiles would need to be adjusted.  The complete removal of
the tcsh dependency is an issue that would take longer to complete; this is an
interim measure that makes it possible to work on the command line within
sh/ksh/bash.

Hi Ken, I've just been reading discussion on dev@ from August and saw
you said you're willing to manage patches in config_office (I was
thinking you were only doing #3660 and friends).  So I gladly assign
this to you ;)
