[Slackbuilds-users] Slackbuilds in python ?

[Dragon Wisard]

Hi Xavier,

According to the Submissions page, SBo doesn't even like bash scripts. They
want pure sh shell scripts.

That said, Bourne Shell (sh) allows you to define functions in the format:
function_name () {
    commands....
}

Regards,
Ben
