Hi!
I wanted to get some opinions about the --extra-opts help text. In the
C code it reads (with typo):
--extra-opts=[section][@file]
Read additionnal options from ini file
[further down between notes and example]
See: http://nagiosplugins.org/extra-opts for --extra-opts usage and
examples
However, the Nagios::Plugin library says:
--extra-opts=[<section>[@<config_file>]]
Section and/or config_file from which to load extra options (may
repeat)
Note a difference in syntax. I'd like to harmonise these and make it
more readable.
A colleague says that "additional options" or "extra opts" suggests
there are other options not available through the command line. I
don't want to change the parameter, but I propose that the text be
changed to:
--extra-opts=[section][@file]
Read options from an ini file. See http://nagiosplugins.org/extra-opts
for usage
For both libraries.
Any objections?
Ton
