  • It needs to be something clean and classy, and not just cat 1.js 2.js >3.js
  • Maybe some git branch trickery?
  • On the IRC, m4 was mentioned 🙂
    • There was also discussion about "tagging" each setting, so the user can choose which categories/groups of settings get pulled into the final user.js
  • Considering, that we already have kind of "format" in the .js (sections, PREF, NOTICE & links)... we could use some standard format e.g. YAML or json to describe the settings and then have a preprocessor to produce user.js & README (instead of completely custom parser)
  • Remember .gitignore
  • Some "standard" user.js should still be readily available in the repo for those who don't wish to mess around with make and other CLI stuff
