The 'Majordomo' mailing list software has been undergoing a significant
overhaul in recent months. Here's an announcement about some on-line help
relating to the new version. This would probably be of most interest to
someone who is quite familiar with the current/CSuite version of majordomo.

Subject: Mj2 help files on the web

I think this says it all!
   http://climber.org/lists/mj2help/help.html

These files are generated from the help files which are generated
from configshow and some hand-typed side files. Please comment on
content via the mj2-docs@hpc.uh.edu list.

If anyone has a good algorithm for turning embedded text into links,
let me know. For example, "help configset debug" and "help configset_debug"
both need to be turned into a link to the file "configset debug"... and
perhaps one cannot always count on the quotes being there, eh?

For now, given that I only wanted to spend a couple of hours on it,
I just look for lines with /^   help / and turn them into links
betting it will work
   http://climber.org/lists/mj2help/topics.html
is an example of why automated link creation is a good idea.

the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man."
