Generating Commands

-------------------
|

|
|
|
|
|
Script Tease may be used in two (2) ways:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Using the library to programmatically define commands and export them as command line statements. See :ref:`developer-reference`.
|
|
|
|
2. Using the ``tease`` command to generate commands from a configuration file. See :ref:`topics-configuration`.

Overlays

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An *overlay* is a set of command meta functions that define the capabilities of a specific operating system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
At present, the only fully defined operating system overlays are for Cent OS and Ubuntu.
