the makefiles, you should be able to recompile Fossil and have it include
your new source file, even before you source file contains any code.
It is recommended that you try this.

Be sure to [/help/add|fossil add] your new source file to the self-hosting
Fossil repository and then [/help/commit|commit] your changes!

<h2>4.0 Creating A New Command</h2>

By "commands" we mean the keywords that follow "fossil" when invoking
Fossil from the command-line.  So, for example, in

    <b>fossil diff xyzzy.c</b>

Fossil for parsing command-line options and for
opening and accessing and manipulating the repository and
the working check-out.  Study implementations of existing commands
to get an idea of how things are done.  You can easily find the implementations
of existing commands by searching for "COMMAND: <i>name</i>" in the
files of the "src/" directory.

As with commands, new webpages can be added simply by inserting a function
that generates the webpage together with a special header comment.  A
template follows:
