Frankly I'd prefer to have lxc-monitor take -a, -g, space-separated multiple names, OR take a long list (perhaps even \0-delimited like xargs -0) on stdin, than to compiler our own regex like lxc-monitor is doing now. Reason being the user can use whatever regexp tool he understands to select the list of containers. OTOH, not sure how many people are using lxc-monitor this way now. If there are any, we don't want to break them. -serge ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing AppDynamics Lite, a free troubleshooting tool for Java/.NET Get 100% visibility into your production application - at no cost.
