"${homedir}/wordfile"
edit_line => update_wordlist("${wordlist}"),
perms => mog("640", "${user}", "users"),
create => "true",
classes => if_repaired("wordlist_$(class_uid)");
...
bundle edit_line update_wordlist(wordlist) {
vars:
"words" slist => splitstring("$(wordlist)",",","100");
# delete all the lines from the file. this happens in memory.
delete_lines:
".*";
insert_lines:
"Word $(words)";
}
