I call everything a script. Makes the Java devs real mad. Makes the PM's super confused.
A million-line project spread over a hundred files
It's a script!
sqlite is technically just one C source file, so that's definitely a script.
The compiled binary being another script.
Just in a different language.
Being one source file is the definition of a script?
The definition of a script is something the computer executes (if it's a computer script, of course). Everything else people shove into it is extraneous.
Wait, so the
bashscript that I broke down into multiple files because I was unable to create and use functions properly, could not be considered a script?It's now just a bash
Guess, I'll be
bashing my way to completion.
