I'd say either: - Include this mega-example in one of the two sections (I can see arguments for either), and make the other section link to the example. - Have this section do no-xattr, [AllowResizable], and [AllowShared, AllowResizable]. Have the [AllowShared] section do no-xattr, [AllowShared], and [AllowShared, AllowResizable]. The first sounds a bit cleaner and less work, so I guess I favor that. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
