Hello Henrik,

I've started to play with trunk yesterday.
Comparing with 4.2, i noticed that :
-COMMENT are not showed on main pages, but are on bb2.html (i've tried 
with --tooltips=always  and withtout --tooltips)
-DESCR are showed on bb2.html when there is no COMMENT for the host

i dont think bbgen's manual is up2date in trunk..

-> is there a way to always show COMMENT and never show DESCR ?
(no problem if not; an explication on COMMENT and DESCR new behaviour 
will be good enough)


Regards,

Olivier Beau

It's difficult to know which trunk I'm working with (since the date isn't always updated), but one of my servers says Hobbit 4.3.0-0-20080402.

In hobbitlaunch.cfg, I have:

[bbdisplay]
         ENVFILE /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
         NEEDS hobbitd
         GROUP generators
         CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --tooltips=never
         LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-display.log
         INTERVAL 1m

and the COMMENT appears on the main page, but no tooltip.  I haven't tried this recently, and I haven't updated this particular Hobbit server with any recent trunks.
