Hi,
Due to needing to being able reconfigure a daemon program where editors don't
run,
I have tweaked the option processing stuff a bit to be able to programmatically
edit the file. And coincidentally validate the syntax before doing the rewrite.
To do this, I've added a new AutoOpts supported option: --reset-option
which will restore any option to its compile time state.
There are two things about this change:
1. A lot of things have wiggled. I've tested it a fair amount, and will
continue doing so for a few more weeks. Nevertheless, I'd sure like
to know now, before I release, if I've done anything that causes
problems with AutoOpts-using applications.
2. If any of you might find it useful also, please play with it and make
suggestions. :)
Here is a description of a config file editor "add-on":

The pre-release announcement is here:

If you are a maintainer of autogen for some distribution, _please_ hold
off for a while. It is tested, but I don't feel like it has been
rigorous enough to put into experimental distributions yet. I'll let
you know when it is (should not be much into September).
Thank you everyone.
Regards, Bruce
