Subject: Suggestions for autogenerating function names to wrap the same code?
Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2022 16:52:54 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <38A2973E-E198-4E15-8DCF-C4C72EBC2B58@dondley.com> (raw)

So I have these two functions:

function task() {
    task_wrapper.pl $funcstack[1] "$@"
}

function tc() {
    task_wrapper.pl $funcstack[1] "$@“

}

They are both wrappers for the same perl script which does its thing based on the value of $funcstack[1];

Works, but I’m wondering if I can spare myself the job remembering to create a new function for each and every new perl function I want to write.

I could write a little script to pull out the subroutine names from the perl script and dump them into a file sourced by zsh and then reload zsh.

Wondering if there might be some cool feature of zsh I don’t know about to assist with creating these functions on-the-fly.
