I think the "cmdline" example on that page is wrong. It says:

but the name expression there extracts the filename, not the virus name
(and doesn't match the above text anyway). I think it should be something
like this:

av_scanner = cmdline:\
              /path/to/sweep -ss -all -rec -archive %s:\
              Virus '(.*)' found


How does one go about changing the docs?

Cheers, Chris.
