  • linkOption logic?

    From Kai Richter@2:240/77 to All on Sat Feb 19 11:10:50 2022
    Hello All!

    When i look to the logic for the echoarea definition -nm switch i found:

    ############################################################################## #EchoArea <name> <file> [-b <msgbase>] [Options] [linkAKAs] [linkOptions]
    #
    # LinkOptions:
    # -mn
    # this link is mandatory subscribed,
    # you may also set:
    # "<aka> -r -mn"
    # or
    # "<aka> -w -r"
    # and so on...

    Because there may be links that have a read-only or write-only (-r -w) limitation this linkOption works per individual linkAKA?


    If yes i'd like to suggest a documentation update from:

    #EchoArea <name> <file> [-b <msgbase>] [Options] [linkAKAs] [linkOptions]
    to
    #EchoArea <name> <file> [-b <msgbase>] [Options] [linkAKAs [linkOptions]]
    ^ ^

    Regards

    Kai

    #EchoArea <name> <file> [-b <msgbase>] [Options] [linkAKAs [linkOptions]]

    Which is not different at all. Do you mean something like this:

    #EchoArea <name> <file> [-b <msgbase>] [Options] [link1_AKA [linkOptions]] [link2_AKA [linkOptions]] ...

    Each <linkOption> refers only to one specific link, after which it is written.

    If yes i'd like to suggest a documentation update from:

    #EchoArea <name> <file> [-b <msgbase>] [Options] [linkAKAs]
    [linkOptions] to #EchoArea <name> <file> [-b <msgbase>] [Options] [linkAKAs [linkOptions]]

    Thank you. I fixed the manual.
