Betreff: [exim-dev] -bP configure_file ---> -bP config_file
Hello,

currently we have

    -bP configure_file  # get the name of the configuration file
    -be $config_file    # get the name of the configuration file


I'm about to push

    -bP config          # get the content of the configuration, as
                        as it is parsed (comments removed, includes
                        resolved, long lines unfolded)



The term configure_file somehow associates the automake configure file
(even Exim doesn't use that auto* stuff).


I'd like to see

    -bP config          # content
    -bP config_file     # file name
    -bP configure_file  # for backward compatibility
    -be $config_file    # file name



And I'd like to see '-bP configure_file' fade out somewhen.

Any serios objections?

    Best regards from Dresden/Germany
    Viele Grüße aus Dresden
