install.rb (modified for bin programs)

i am sorry i do not know the orginal author to credit - but this is a modified
install.rb that installs anything found in ./bin into the same bin dir as ruby
(or that passed as '--bindir=' from the command line).  simple, but it works.


file: install.rb

require 'rbconfig'
require 'find'

$site_libdir = $:.find {|x| x =~ /site_ruby$/}
$bindir      = CONFIG["bindir"]

if !$site_libdir
  $site_libdir = File.join($libdir, "site_ruby")
elsif $site_libdir !~ %r/#{Regexp.quote($version)}/
  $site_libdir = File.join($site_libdir, $version)
end

  dir    = []
  Find.find(srcdir) do |f|
    next unless FileTest.file?(f)
    next if (f = f[srcdir.length+1..-1]) == nil
    next if (/CVS$/ =~ File.dirname(f))
    path.push f
    dir |= [File.dirname(f)]
  end
  for f in dir
    next if f == "."

    File::makedirs(File.join(destdir, f))

    next if (/^\./ =~ File.basename(f))
    File::install(File.join(srcdir, f), File.join(destdir, f), mode, true)
  end
end
