Introduction
------------

I've started to put together some commonly used/requested scripts both
to provide examples of good scripting using P4Ruby and also to solve
some common problems in what I hope is an efficient way.

I hope that over time, this will grow into a fairly broad range of
resources for Perforce users.

All of these scripts require you to install
[Ruby](http://www.ruby-lang.org) and
[P4Ruby](ftp://ftp.perforce.com/perforce)

Support
-------

If you have any problems or questions with these scripts you can contact
me at <tony@perforce.com> or <tony@smee.org>. These scripts are not
supported by Perforce Software, but by me personally. I'll answer
questions as quickly as I can.

Triggers
--------

These are some example trigger scripts. The documentation for all of
these scripts is available
[here](http://public.perforce.com/guest/tony_smith/perforce/P4Rubylib/triggers/doc/index.html).
