I can't think of one myself.
Off the cuff: Passing as an argument to a log rotation script or promise. For setting a promise to compare the relative sizes of two files. Checking if a file has a non-zero size, as opposed to merely existing. IMO, it's a reasonable thing to request--a basic, simple tool. Give the admins tools; let them build what they need. -- Jesse Becker NHGRI Linux support (Digicon Contractor) _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
