Project Description

PIKT is cross-categorical, multi-purpose software
for monitoring and configuring computer systems,
administering networks, organizing system
security, and much more. PIKT is intended
primarily for system monitoring, and secondarily
for configuration management, but its versatility
and extensibility evoke many other wide-ranging
uses. PIKT consists of a sophisticated,
feature-rich file preprocessor; an innovative
scripting language with unique labor-saving
features; a flexible, centrally directed process
scheduler; a customizing file installer; a
collection of powerful command-line extensions;
and other useful tools.

1.17.0pre4

This version implements several new preprocessor
directives, #set, #setenv, and #echo, making a form of
parameter passing to #include files possible, among other
uses. It implements the "piktc -B" option for restoring files
from backup. It also introduces a new utility, piktf ("pikt
find"), for finding elements within the PIKT configuration.
Command-line item macros have been introduced, giving A,
O, P, and F item specs the alias- and group-like functionality
of H specs. Several other improvements and bugfixes have
been made.

1.16.1

This release fixes a problem which caused ssh to hang when (re)starting
piktd (open file descriptors are now handled correctly), broken piktd
alert timing on 64-bit systems (such as Alpha), broken backslash escapes
in macro args, several bugs involving the use of #indent and #unindent
within #include files, and several minor bugs/glitches. It removes the
arbitrary limits to the length of macro expansions.
