You may be thinking of mktap plugins. mktap is deprecated. I don't understand the grammar in "why has this not become part of it all along". Are you suggesting use of a time machine? I would love to, if you made one available to me. > This is disregarding the whole fact that none of already existing > twistd options are at all revelevant to my users, and only serve to > provide more noise. If this is a command line non-daemon application, then you're right. twistd is not really geared towards those. There are some vague ideas for helping people write tools like that in a way that makes sense, but nothing very concrete. As for your initial list of things, I encourage you to file them as bugs (making sure you search for existing bugs first). They look pretty reasonable. Some of them are probably just documentation bugs. -- Christopher Armstrong http://radix.twistedmatrix.com/ http://planet-if.com/ http://canonical.com/ _______________________________________________ Twisted-web mailing list [email protected] http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-web
