% fpm -s dir -t sh -n example -v 1.0 $HOME/.{vim,zsh}rc
Created package {:path=>"example.sh"}
% ./example.sh -h
Usage: example.sh [options]
Install this package
  -i <DIRECTORY> : install_root - an optional directory to install to.
      Default is package file name without file extension
  -o <USER>     : owner - the name of the user that will own the files installed
                   by the package. Defaults to current user
  -r: disable capistrano style release directories - Default behavior is to create a releases directory inside
      install_root and unpack contents into a date stamped (or build time id named) directory under the release
      directory. Then create a 'current' symlink under install_root to the unpacked
      directory once installation is complete replacing the symlink if it already
      exists. If this flag is set just install into install_root directly
  -u: Unpack the package, but do not install and symlink the payload
  -f: force - Always overwrite existing installations
  -y: yes - Don't prompt to clobber existing installations
  -v: verbose - More output on installation
  -h: help -  Display this message
