This is the new and improved way of getting set up for perforce access with zenspider.com:
1) Get the p4 binary from http://www.perforce.com/perforce/downloads
Make sure that you get the darwin binary if you use Mac OS X.
2) Run the following to install it:
chmod 555 p4 sudo mv p4 /usr/local/bin
This assumes 3 things: that you use a UNIX system, that you have /usr/local/bin, and that it is in your PATH. YMMV.
2) Get my script from http://www.zenspider.com/~ryand/new_perforce
chmod it as well, just as above (you may want 755 instead).
3) cd to your work area and type:
new_perforce projectname
Follow the instructions and you should be good to go.
You can do all but the very last bit w/o me setting up your permissions, so go ahead and get it all done except for the last part.
