Document overriding the number of // jobs. Some small documentation fixes.

2007-07-24In overview.txt, document the two ways of using crosstool-NG: install and ↵Yann E. MORIN"1-6/+82
--local. Fix some typos in overview.txt. Document populate's options, still in overview.txt. Credit the buildroot people for the patches I vampirise from time to time.

2007-07-17Revisit the extract-config way of working: ct-ng is the sole entry point to ↵Yann E. MORIN"1-0/+16
crosstool-NG, and ct-ng.extrac-config no longer exists. You now have to call "ct-ng extractconfig </path/to/your/build.log" instead.

2007-07-02Get rid of eclipse fiels once and for all.Yann E. MORIN"1-12/+13
Homogenise the references to crosstool-NG: - the project is named "crosstool-NG" - the front-end is named "ct-ng" - don't use shortcuts (such as "ct-ng" to stand for "crosstool-NG") Default action is to print help. Don't speak of make rules when dumping help, just speak of actions.
2007-07-02Update docs/overview.txt to match the new way to call crosstool-ng: "ct-ng ↵Yann E. MORIN"1-16/+16
[action]" in lieu of "make [action]".

- ./configure --prefix=/some/place - make - make install - export PATH="${PATH}:/some/place/bin" - ct-ng <action>
2007-06-26Better handling of the steps lists:Yann E. MORIN"1-16/+3
- new make rulle: liststeps, - new help entry telling about liststeps, - update documentation accordingly.
2007-06-17The log file is no longer configurable: it is always ↵Yann E. MORIN"1-4/+0
"${CT_PREFIX_DIR}/build.log". Add an option to compress the log file upon successfull build. Make rendering the toolchain read-only optional. A few eye-candy fixes.
2007-06-17scripts/showSamples.sh:Yann E. MORIN"1-64/+75
- revert sample dumping to not show the components versions; docs/overview.txt: - reorder docs/overview.txt so that configuring comes before running, - tell about regtest; Makefile: config/global.in: - point to docs/overview.txt for the list of steps;
2007-06-02Revert revision 201: renaming the two cc_core passes was a bad idea.Yann E. MORIN"1-2/+2
2007-06-01Rename two steps to their real names:Yann E. MORIN"1-2/+2
- cc_core_pass_1 is really cc_core_static, - cc_core_pass_2 is really cc_core_shared.
