Hi Thomas and Patrick,
I just killed my X session once again. ;-) This time, because in
interactive mode I expected a means auto as with $nrconf{restart}.
But instead it seems to mean all -- which IMHO is not so useful.
I've changed the dialog accordingly.
Additionally those keys are neither documented in the needrestart(1) nor
by pressing ? at that prompt as common with many tools (dpkg,
aptitude, etc.).
ACK. A inline help has been added upstream:
Restart accounts-daemon.service? [Ynas?] ?
Yes - restart this service
No- do not restart this service
Auto - auto restart all remaining services
Stop - stop restarting services
Besides documenting the key's meanings (does s mean stop?), I
suggest to maybe change the meaning of a to auto and introduce A
for all. I though have not yet many ideas how to indicate the default
value instead of the capital letter used so far: Using square brackets
around the default value seems a common approach here, i.e. use
y[n]aAs where currently yNas is shown.
The query is case insensitive. I've decided to drop all completely -
auto sounds more usefull.
HTH,
Thomas
