I’m trying out making a Foundation command-line tool. I added a bundle identifier string when creating the project, but I don’t see it anywhere, as if there’s no Info.plist. Are (Foundation) tools created by Xcode flat files, like traditional Unix tools? Or are they bundles? If flat files, can they be made into bundles with some project tweaks?
If you use the standard template for command line tool, it’s a flat single simple executable destined for somewhere like /usr/local/bin.
I have used the app template before as a basis for making a tool, just removing all the gui stuff and replacing it with a main, worked fine although I’m sure I recall fighting with it a bit on the road but I don’t remember what was hard.
That then installs in /Applications. For that one I also put it in an installer which created a /usr/local/bin symlink so it could be run easily from the command line.
