Change name of gator project files #7

Open devboy opened 12 years ago

devboy commented 12 years ago

At the moment gator is looking for project files with the name "gator" or "gator.rb". But this can cause some problems on systems that will automatically execute ruby files, so when in a directory with the file "gator.rb" will execute the project file, and not the gator executable.

Therefore we need to come up with a new name and I am open for suggestions, my first ideas:

project.rb project.gator project.gtr

Let me know what you think.

project.rb

Was just thinking about a .gator directory, like .svn or .git. Were one could also store project specific templates and other stuff. Would that be an idea?

I loved the simplicity of just adding a project specific rb only. Templates etc I think are best placed in another location as there is a tendency otherwise to end up with too much clutter within the project.

That said, for team projects a .gator directory would most likely be quite useful for distributing project templates?

Hmmmmm.....

True, we could have both i guess. And the directory being optional.
