Hi,
It's 01:20 again and I have improved the Lint parser a lot since.
I noticed major flaws in the batch routines as well as in my shell
scripts and Emacs version we have here. And I had hard time to
debug why my .procmailrc saw everything double (that is: there was
some extra c flag somewhere. Finding this bug made me reorganize my
whole .procmailrc and inpired adding new section to the pm-tips.txt)
I'm happy to announce that the lint service should now be more robust.
To lint any piece of procmail code, use:
To: jari(_dot_)aalto(_at_)poboxes
subject: pm-lint
BODY-HAS-THE-CODE-TO-CHECK
To get the help file (in case you need guidance or if you wonder what
the lint is talking about)
To: jari(_dot_)aalto(_at_)poboxes
subject: send pm-lint.hlp
BODY-IS-IGNORED
I hope you all will be able to improve your procmail coding with the
help of the Lint. At least some obvious mistakes may be found easier.
