I'd thought of going into the source, but posted the query instead because I knew I'd find the source a bit vague, since I don't code C. I'm sure if I did the values of %s and %d in the code would be obvious - they must be the variables specified by the names following in the functions? But then I have to try to trace back farther and see where it derived those variables. For instance, "dev actual" is which device spec in a bridged situation? br0? eth0? I know I could just spend a lot of time experimenting, which could be both revealing and fun. (If only I had infinite time and many redundant systems to toy with.) I've written code myself where, on being asked for more documentation, I insist that my code should be clearer than any additional docs I could write. So I know how that looks from the inside. From the outside, though, even well-written code (and everything about this project, both code and docs, is impressively clean) is more opaque than good docs. Hope you have time to expand the docs to cover more of the background theory as well as the specific logic of operations like this in the future. But I know your time isn't infinite either. Thanks again for all you've accomplished so far. I'm sure I'll get it working (because I've promised a client...). Whit |
