Generates a basic skeleton for jumpstarting a new Magento Module.
Copy magModSkel.sh to some folder in your PATH. Or don't, but always use the full path when running it. See if I care.
magModSkel <Namespace> <ModuleName>
Generates the folders and a couple common files (config.xml, Data.php, Namespace_ModuleName.xml) in the current folder. Run it in an empty folder (recommended), or within the root of a Magento webtree (with caution).
I like to use a separate folder, then just symlink everything over to my magento dev webtree. That way I don't have to juggle git and gitignore crap when I should be writing code.
Enjoy, and feel free to fork and pull to add your own improvements!
