TINAPAMA: Updating programs made easy
The new program from AmiModRadio programmer 'Tygre', TINAPAMA, "is not a package manager", as the acronym hints already, but it makes it easier to keep your software up to date as well. This can be done for individual programs or entire groups using a simple CLI command and, if you have multiple Amigas, it can also be triggered centrally.
A description file in each directory, for example the file "AmiModRadio.tinapama" at the installation location of this music player, specifies exactly what should be done and where the respective updates can be found on the internet. If newer files than those already installed exist when the program is called, the update is performed. There are already predefined Tinapama description files for a whole range of programs; otherwise, you can create them yourself using the parameters listed at the title link. (snx)
