Re: Working Recipe

At 00:27 2003-07-06 -0600, LuKreme  (List User Kreme) did say:
* LISTNAME ?? .

instead of

* ! LISTNAME ?? ^^^^

I'm not sure that matters though.

The first says to match one of anything in LISTNAME (one or more would be fine, but the expression just looks for one, which will be there if there's more than one). The second says "if NOT a match for the empty string".

Yes, functionally, they'll both achieve the same thing here.

and yes, all my list processing happens in a separate rc file. It used to be a few hundred lines. I think it's down to abut 50 now, maybe 75 with comments.

I'm not sure you're necessarily replying to the same point I raised - not that list processing should necessarily occur in a separate file (though structure is good), but rather that if you take that core mkdir/deliver recipe and put IT into a separate rcfile, which you then INCLUDERC into the individual braced list deliveries, you'd commonize that sort of "function" to them all.
