[p4] Need sample script for to create client spec

[David Weintraub]

Have you looked at the Administrator's guide? There's a good example
there. Here's a quickie using Unix Hear docs:

p4 client -i <<EOF

Client: $client
Description:  $description
Root: $root
View:
    $view
EOF

Just set the environment variables, $client, $description, $view, and
$root. The only thing you have to watch for is making sure that if
$view is multiple lines, to put a space in front of each line.
