Parrot-based project skeleton creation script

[brianwisti]

Since not all Parrot projects are languages, it would be nice to have a project skeleton generator morally equivalent to Perl's Module::Starter.

Given <project-builder> --module=Foo (for one possible usage example), the following minimal layout might be generated:

• Foo/
  • lib/
    • Foo.pir
  • t/
    • harness.pir
    • 00-sanity.t
  • setup.pir

setup.pir would manage primary tasks such as build, test, and install.

Extra credit items could include: a flag to define the project as mostly PIR or mostly NQP; a Foo/bin folder whose contents would go into an appropriate location (/usr/local/bin, $PARROT_BIN, whatever); other standard project files such as README.

I repeat the question.
