thanks, that works just fine :) . I am writing some methods right now. a last question maybe: how can I ouptut text on the command line from within a function?
crit(...) and function_crit(...) don't seem to work, even when I include the puppet functions using "... loadall" like said in the docs. thanks in advance, axel. Am Donnerstag, 19.
