The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command
substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.
The backquoted form is the traditional method for command
substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the
simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded
command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require
careful escaping with the backslash character.
The patch was generated by:
for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh")
do
perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg' "${_f}"
done
and then carefully proof-read.

appp.sh is a script that is supposed to be used together with ExternalEditor for Mozilla Thunderbird. It will let you include patches inline in e-mails in an easy way. Usage: - Generate the patch with git format-patch. - Start writing a new e-mail in Thunderbird. - Press the external editor button (or Ctrl-E) to run appp.sh - Select the previously generated patch file. - Finish editing the e-mail. Any text that is entered into the message editor before appp.sh is called will be moved to the section between the --- and the diffstat. All S-O-B:s and Cc:s in the patch will be added to the CC list. To set it up, just install External Editor and tell it to use appp.sh as the editor. Zenity is a required dependency.
