The use of the hook I outlined in the first bug report is addressed by @include now being able to execute commands, but this hook (@now) could probably be used to generate debug output during ferm run, or for other advanced things. Please consider implementing it nevertheless. Greetings Marc -- - Marc Haber | I don't trust Computers.

Package: ferm Version: 2.0.5-1 Severity: wishlist Hi, To _generate_ rules from outside ferm, it would be good to have a hook which is executed immediately when the line is read to allow things like: @hook now ferm-hook-create-rules; @include rules-created-by-ferm-hook; I currently do this by inserting a dummy rule into a dummy chain: chain dummy interface `ferm-hook-create-rules` NOP; @include rules-created-by-ferm-hook; while the scripts empty output prevents any rules from being actually created.
