Readme Generator

[beaver6813]

Hey,

Just thought i'd post here a readme generator i've created. I created it a month back just practising with fwrite and a few other functions and i hope that people can use this script for practise with exactly the same thing.

You enter a few details about your product, ie. development team, version main info etc etc and it creates a .txt readme including ASCII generated text at the top using figlet.

EDIT: Just updated to V1.2 (Added commenting throughout the main folder to help people understand and edit it )

Main page: http://www.beaver6813.com/me/?page_id=7
Demo: http://www.beaver6813.com/readmegen
Download:
New V1.2: http://www.beaver6813.com/me/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/XReadme_Generator_V1.2.zip

Any bugs or suggestions, lemme know

Your demo displays this error :

Warning: fopen(readmesaved/README-Demo_Name-90.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/beaver68/public_html/readmegen/index.php on line 135
Cannot open file (readmesaved/README-Demo_Name-90.txt)

Check your permissions?

 

[beaver6813]

Hey,
I transfered hosts yesterday so its probably changed permissions like you said Will check it out now ^^

EDIT: Fixed Needed to re-chmod the readmesaved directory
