PLN(5) File Formats Manual PLN(5) NAME pln -- progressive label notation DESCRIPTION Progressive Label Notation is a configuration format used by rset(1), and is designed to be evaluated sequentially. pln supports options de- fined by key=value pairs and text fragments designated by tab indenta- tion interpreter=/bin/sh -x packages: pkg_add ruby%3.2 ln -sf /usr/local/bin/ruby32 /usr/local/bin/ruby ln -sf /usr/local/bin/irb32 /usr/local/bin/irb services: ./rinstall mail/smtpd_relay.conf /etc/mail/smtpd.conf \ && rcctl restart smtpd # vim:ts=4:syntax=sh A label may also be followed by special content between a pair of braces on the beginning of a line. A common use for this is to set en- vironment variables using local configuration www: { cat ssl.env } echo $SSL_PASSWORD > /etc/keys/global.pass OPTIONS Each option may be set multiple times, and is effective for labels that follow. Reset an option to the implementation-defined default using `=' without a value. LABELS Label names do not need to be unique and may contain any series of characters except for single and double quotes. A series of pathnames for use by the application may be specified after the `:' svc1.local: etc/ rc.d/ httpd.pln Labels may be split into multiple aliases separated by using commas svc1.local,10.0.0.10: common.pln Alternatively, sequence expressions may be used to match a range of hosts db{1..4}.local: autofailover.pln COMMENTS Comments begin with a hash (`#') character, and can only be used the beginning of a line.
