Hello Paul, Basically, apkg.mergefile gives you a "pre-merged" diff between 2 files, i.e. an hybrid format between the full file and a diff -u (to allow easy edition) apkg.merge let one choose between one version of a file or the other or edit the "pre-merged" version of both apkg -u uses apkg.merge for every file which have changed between old distrib .lrp and new distrib .lrp and also between old distrib .lrp and running config it is really an upgrade utility only and won't be useful in your case
your suggestions are really interesting and could be implemented in a way similar to apkg -u I will take a look Regards, Cedric 2006/9/8, Paul Traina < [EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > I'm going to try to pound out something to do this, unless someone > tells me that there's already a better way of doing it.
