Dear yvan,
I do understand perfectly the request but I need to imagine what would
be a feature that match the most of users.
So what's are the most popular items and how to manage them from the
cmdline ?
I suggest the following : using some "%" symbols to define items.
We could have the following list :
%m = mac-address
%p = product name from the dmi
%v = vendor name from the dmi
and so on.
The current scheme would be represented by
dump_filename="%m+%v+%p"
Would it be an acceptable option for you ?
Does anyone on the list see some more items to add ?
PS: Feel free to join the irc channel for talking about it too ;o)
