Just like the "view-source:" in Gecko browsers. Or it can be a separate field in the watch file, e.g. version=4 URL ftp://ftp.avm.de/tools/capi4hylafax.linux/capi4hylafax-(.*)\.tar\.gz debian uupdate and version=4 SVN http://svn.avm.de/capihylyafax/tags/release-(.*) debian uupdate -- Lionel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
