You could also use the contents of this file to show the number of errors and warnings on the PTS page of the package. <snip> > No problem, what do you suggest for the policy for presenting links from > the PTS? i.e. when do you want to see the link to one and when the link > to the other? I think it would make the most sense to show links to both pages if they both have contents, or to show a link only to the full page if there are no warnings or errors. You'd want to distinguish between the two links somehow to make it clear that one is only warnings and errors (and generally what people have to worry about), and the other shows the full report including things that aren't necessarily problems. <snip> -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
