Generate

Generate (gen) is a command line script template automation tool written in bash 3.2+. Generate automates the creation of script files, modifies file permissions, inputs custom and default script templates, and launches your favorite editor seamlessly.

Recently added:

• Improved -c option. Added support for symbolic mode bits.
  • gen -c 754 example.py and gen -c u+x,g+x example.py are both valid now.
  • In case the regex used isn't all-inclusive, chmod is able to print error messages directly to aid in troubleshooting.

Upcoming features:

• Continued bug testing/verifying functionality across Linux/BSD/MacOS.

Please send me any ideas for increasing portability, or adding features!
