Hello all,

Just wanted to let you know that I've pushed a new drush command to this github repository.

What it does is generating a VirtualHost section for the Apache configuration, which allows you to easily add new virtual hosts to your system.

It saves me some time, hope you'll find it useful too.

Thanks for your attention, looking forward for comments and suggestions.

Yes, I totally agree that a shell script is the right tool for this job. I was just looking for an excuse to try creating drush commands ;-)

I'm not saying that a shell script is better than a drush command, really; a shell script is sufficient for the job, but that does not make a drush command worse. One good reason to use a drush command is if you want to integrate with drush aliases; I did this when I converted pushkey (now in drush_extras) into a drush command from a bash script. Do take a look at provision and drubuntu; they might do what you want. If not, enhancing your drush command is a fine way to go.
