# This script helps us write tests in a portable way, without relying on a lot
# of shell features.  Since we already have Perl to run the tests, use that.
#
# The arguments represent a set of steps that will be run one at a time.
# Each step consists of an operator and argument.
#
# It supports the following operators:
#  out <word>   : echo <word> to stdout
#  file <word>  : echo <word> to stdout AND create the file <word>
#  dir <word>   : echo <word> to stdout AND create the directory <word>
#  rm <word>    : echo <word> to stdout AND delete the file/directory <word>
#  wait <word>  : wait for a file named <word> to exist
#  tmout <secs> : Change the timeout for waiting.  Default is 4 seconds.
#  sleep <secs> : Sleep for <secs> seconds then echo <secs>
#  fail <err>   : echo <err> to stdout then exit with error code err
#
# If given -q only the "out" command generates output.

# Force flush
