- lipoi (v 1.0) -- Interactive LIPO
-
- WHAT IT DOES:
- Provides an interactive means by which to use lipo to remove one
- or more architecture from a specific binary file. Currently there is no
- good way to thin to two archs that I know of (TickleServices apparently
- does this, but I couldn't get it to).
-
- BUGS/WARNINGS/NOTES:
- THIS SCRIPT ASSUMES THAT YOUR VERSION OF LIPO CAN CORRECTLY
- UNDERSTAND hppa AND sparc ARCHS!!! The lipo which shipped with NS 3.2
- does not do this (I believe). I am not familiar enough with any of the
- other 'lipo'-type binaries to use them with this script. If you are, feel
- free to use this as a starting point.
-
- This script is ugly. I do not pretend that it is not. But it
- works for me, and that's what really counts ;-) All you have to do is
- give it the path to any MAB file, and it will prompt you for which archs
- to remove.
-
- As always, make a backup before you use any new modifying tool.
- If you remove the wrong arch, the binary will NO LONGER WORK. Be Careful.
-
- See the beginning of the script for more information.
-
- LAWS OF USAGE:
- #1) If you use it, you accept the risk for it. I cannot/willnot take
- personal responsibility for what you do with this script. Once you have
- it, all responsibility goes to you. The only promise you get is that it
- has worked fine for me.
-
- #2) If you like it, tell me. No $ needed. Just tell me.
-
- #3) If you change it and redistribute it, send me a copy.
-
- #4) Feel free to give it away or put it on a CD you are making.
- As long as you keep my name on there somewhere, even if it is
- to say "he did it wrong, I'm doing it right".
