2011-10-23 13:08:46 Frederic Descamps description In the documentation it's mention that if the file pt-stalk.conf exists in the current working directory, then “ENVIRONMENT” variables are imported from it. But in fact if pt-stalk is in the path, it won't use the config file in the current working dir but in the directory from the command. This is a patch: --- pt-stalk.old 2011-10-23 10:01:24.633878128 +0200 +++ pt-stalk 2011-10-23 10:02:54.877878121 +0200 @@ -7,8 +7,8 @@ # ######################################################################## # Check for the existence of a config file and source it if it exists # ######################################################################## -if [ -f "${0}.conf" ]; then - .
