This can be very confusing IMHO. Intuitively, I'd expect the expression check_list_empty($list) to be truthy if $list is empty. I'd rather call it list_not_empty. But looking at the caller you introduce later, it might be better to avoid the double negative, flip the truth table and call it list_is_empty. > + > sub trim { > my $txt = shift; > _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
