The last paragraph of the DESCRIPTION section of "man procmailsc"
says:
A certain condition can contribute to the score if you
allocate it a `weight' (w) and an `exponent' (x). You do
this by preceding the condition (on the same line) with:
w^x
Whereas both w and x are real numbers between
-2147483647.0 and 2147483647.0.
Is it true that *_real_* numbers are supported, (and not just
integers)?
Yep...procmail uses doubles internally for scoring.
will always have an integer in the X-SCORE: header field, (or does it
truncate it, or round it?)
The real value is converted to a long integer value when setting $=. So
they get truncated. However, if the real value is between 0 and 1 then
it is rounded up to 1.
Hope that helps,
Martin
