The script is in git…

I would be happy if the whole (or most) of the stone-creator could be added to gemstone :) My old sysadmin sole does not want to start things in their installation directory. Stone-creator isolates a stone installation from the gemstone installation directory. This way you can have as many stones as you like to. I also have to mangle Dales scripts on any new release because I have start scripts that aren’t meant to run forever like Dales scripts. I’ll configure GC via cron where I think it is supposed to be.
This is not blaming. The ability to install the package, start and go is great. But if you are heading for modularity there are some difficulties and some weakness like that netldi still gets its environment from the gemstone install dir and for gemtools you need to adjust those scripts if you need to change the temp object space settings and such. 

I’m happy to help (if I find the time nick nack) arranging a few things.

Just some food for thought,

Norbert
