- Why does install-dpi-local put dpidc in ~/.dillo, anyway? Wouldn't that be unusual for it to be in anyone's path?
The idea was to have most dillo-related things in that directory. Subdirectories in ~/bin look rare, so lacking a better idea it ended in ~/.dillo
- Do you think it would be silly to make a little manpage for dpidc?
Yes. AFAIS the main use of dpidc is "dpidc stop". The "chat" idea is interesting for testing dpis. I don't remember having implemented it though! :). Once it works in a useful way, a man page may help.
- I'm contemplating making dpidc's exit values distinguish between the cases of: 1) Bad usage. Wrong number of args. 2) I can't find the stuff to communicate with dpid (either because this the first use of dillo, or the dpi system has been changed). 3) Connection refused. I think dpid just isn't running right now. 4) Something is breaking while communicating with dpid.
Accurate error messages are certainly welcomed. -- Cheers Jorge.-
