In my mon.m4, I have a router monitoring script with an argument like this:
-include=WAN Without any problems. Yesterday I added another invocation of that script with the argument: -include=Serial10/4 And much to my surprise, the script didn't run - it turns out that m4 was turning the second line into: -=Serial10/4 Since the script in question is using Perl's GetOpt::Long, which is case-insensitive with verbose options, I changed the line to: -Include=Serial/10/4 Which still worked for the script but didn't trigger m4's line eater. I know "include" is special to m4, but why would it eat one of those lines but not the other? _______________________________________________ mon mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/mon
