okay bestie, so you know sympa-make_alias_file(1)? yeah, that one. it's a lil helper from the sympa 6.2.80 era and it's literally here to do one thing and do it cute. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

sympa-make_alias_file β€” Create aliases file πŸŽ€ (yes that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly, no cap)


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

sympa make_alias_file domain|"*" [ domain ... ]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the vibe: this command creates an aliases file in the temporary directory β€” and which temporary directory, you ask? it's the one specified by the tmpdir parameter, iykyk. πŸ’…

inside that file you get all list aliases like it's nothing. so organized of her, honestly.

and the tea is: it uses the list_aliases.tt2 template to do it. which means this is super useful when list_aliases.tt2 was changed and you wanna see your new template in action. main character energy fr fr πŸ”₯

bestie reminder: it's tmpdir that decides where that temporary directory lives β€” don't go looking in the wrong place and blaming her πŸ’€

that's the whole page, and she ate, periodt πŸ‘‘
