# About

This is kinda like `make`, for `bash`, but not even remotely close in
capability.

# Usage

See what you can do:

$ cat nakefile
default-task () {
echo Running default task
}

deploy () {
echo -n uploading to my-server...
tar --create --bzip2 * \
| ssh my-server "cd /htdocs;
rm -rf ./*;
tar --extract --bzip2;"
echo done
}

and,

$ n -l
default-task
deploy

$ n
Running default task

$ n deploy
uploading to my-server...done

Other *features*:

- All arguments after the task name are simply passed on to the task function.
- Task auto-completion is available for bash and zsh.

# Installation

Place the `n.sh` file somewhere accessible and *source* it in your
`.bashrc`/`.zshrc`.

$ curl https://bitbucket.org/sharat87/n-nake/raw/tip/n.sh > ~/.n.sh
$ echo '. ~/.n.sh' >> ~/.bashrc

`n` should be ready to use now.

# Contributions

Even as basic as `n` is currently today, it has proven to be very useful to me.
Any suggestions/ideas/feedback welcome. Please open an issue on bitbucket (or
github) or send a pull request, if the change is simple enough.

Code is hosted on both [bitbucket](https://bitbucket.org/sharat87/n-nake) and
