Developers of Sympa

[Olivier Salaun <address@concealed>]

Hi Janek,

We agree with the principle but we much prefer a Sympa-like variable syntax...
We have coded the desired feature in CVS version. It is now described as 
follow 
in the documentation :
        custom_subject
        ....
        This string can refer to list variables, currently [list->name] or 
        [list->sequence] (the sequence number of the message). 

        Example: custom_subject Msg [list->sequence]. 

2 patches are required :
http://listes.cru.fr/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/sympa/src/parser.pl.diff?r1=1.5&r2=1.6&f=c
http://listes.cru.fr/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/sympa/src/List.pm.diff?r1=1.251&r2=1.252&f=c
