I completely agree with @dregad that it would help a lot if there is any information about skipping a script because of a dot. I lost plenty of time troubleshooting smartmontools exec command because of that. IMO statement "If neither the --lsbsysinit option nor the --regex option is given then the names must consist entirely of upper and lower case letters, digits, underscores, and hyphens." isn't enough, on man page. I read it twice and it didn't bring my attention and help me understand where my issue is. It should be explicitly written that scripts with dots are skipped.
