Hi,
As I have promised in a previous mail, I have written a manpage for
plymouth to explain the basics of it and the usage of its primary
configuration script, plymouth-set-default-plugin. I have used the
basic template for manpages which is created by the Debian debhelper
script "dh_make". Since the template manpage also contained short
options, I have patched plymouth-set-default-theme to allow short
options as well. It's just more consistent with other usual GNU
command line utilities. I have also added a man/Makefile.am, edited
configure.ac and Makefile.am in the plymouth source root folder, so
that the manpage is automatically installed with "make install". It
gets installed into section 8, like all other system-related utilities
like grub-install and so on.
Looking forward to further comments or suggestions.
Thanks,
Adrian

Hi guys,
For those that haven't noticed, Charlie wrote a 4 part guide to
theming on his blog here:
http://brej.org/blog/?p=158
http://brej.org/blog/?p=174
http://brej.org/blog/?p=197
http://brej.org/blog/?p=238
It's a very interesting read, and something we may want to incorporate
into the wiki. (If I did that, would you mind, Charlie?)

Sure no problem. There is already a page on the scripting but I think
there are many things missing.

Thanks much for doing this. I've pushed this out to master along with
a few follow up commits.
I'm really glad to get this in. One area where plymouth has been weak
is documentation.
