Beta 1 is now available for testing.

New Features:

1)  The variables $_loglevel and $_logtag (${_loglevel} and ${_logtag})
    are now available within action bodies. Their contents are:

    $_loglevel
        
        The log level specified when the action was invoked. If no
        level was specified, $_loglevel expands to 'none'.

    $_logtag

        The log tag specified when the action was invoked. If no tag
        was specified, $_logtag expands to an empty string.

2)  Action variables ($0, $1,...$n,$_loglevel and $_logtag) are now
    available in ?IF and ?ELSIF directives.

3)  A 'nolog' option has been added to /etc/shorewall[6]/actions. This
    option causes the compiler to forego adding the log level and log
    tag from the action invocation to those rules within the body that
    do not specify a tag and/or level.

3)  An 'ALLOWUNKNOWNVARIABLES' option has been added to
    /etc/shorewall[6]/shorewall[6].conf. When set to 'Yes', this option
    instructs the compiler to expand unknown shell variables and
    action parameters to an empty string rather than raising an error.

4)  ?SET and ?RESET directives are now available:

         ?SET <variable>   <value>
         ?RESET <variable>

    To cater to both Shell and Perl programmers, the <variable> may
    be entered with or without leading '$'.

    The ?SET command sets the named <variable> the the specified
    <value> where <value> is a Perl-compatible expression.

    The ?RESET command deletes the named <variable> from the compiler's
    variable table.

Thank you for testing,
-Tom
