xs xdc.tools.path.sg [--packagepath PATH]
DETAILS
This graphical interactive tool displays the packages located along any
specified package repository path.
At startup, this tool shows the packages located along the current package
path; i.e.,
$XDCPATH;$XDCROOT/packages;^
where $XDCPATH is the value of the the user settable prefix of the
package path, $XDCROOT is the installation directory of the XDC tools,
and ^ is the repository of the package in the current working directory
(if it exists). To specify a package path other than the current package
path, use the --packagepath option. Only semicolon delimited canonical
paths should be specifed as arguments with the --packagepath option.
Environment variables such as $XDCROOT and special designators such as
'^' should not be used.
BUGS
This tool scans all packages available along the current
package path before displaying the user interface. So, a repository in
the package path that contains a large number of sub-directories, such
as '/', causes very long delays before the user interface is displayed.
While it is easy to see that you should not put '/' in the package path,
it is less obvious that installing a package at '/' has the same effect.
