πΈ NAME πΈ
sympa-make_alias_file β Create aliases file π (yes that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly, no cap)
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
sympa make_alias_file domain|"*" [ domain ... ]
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
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. π
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 π₯
bestie reminder: it's tmpdir that decides where that temporary directory lives β don't go looking in the wrong place and blaming her π
that's the whole page, and she ate, periodt π
