1 Cone command line interface

     2 ===========================

     3 

     4 ConE command line interface is desinged to offer different actions. A action can be anything that utilizes the ConE interface and 

     5 somehow interacts with a Configuration Project. Each action has it's own set of command line arguments.

     7 Calling ConE

     8 ------------

     9 

    10 All ConE commands are wrapped up by the cone.cmd, which executes internally cone_tool.py. The cone_tool.py searches for all conesub_*.py 

    11 matching files under the same scripts folder under cone installation. So basically adding a new action is just adding a new conesub_*.py file.

    12 

    13 To get a list of all available cone commands run::

    14 

    15     cone -h

    16     

    17 or::

    18 

    19     cone --help

    20   

    21 And you will get something like this as output::

    22 

    23     Usage: cone_tool.py [action] [options].
