I am no longer a cell admin, but I am sure such scripts (which process the output) exist, and will need modification. I am, however, in favor of expanding the output (although an " (implicit) " append might be useful to help humans interpret the result, and for scripts to be able to parse such). However, while out of scope, I would (long term) prefer the output of commands to be able to generate a machine parseable output (json?) so that parsing output can be more robust(*)(**). Gary (*) I presume like many others I have more than once written a script which parsee the output of a command and experienced breakage when upstream changed the format of the output. (**) And while I do not know what the json would include, an "implicit" boolean flag would seem to be desirable for each array element of the result. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
