Adding a new action
----------------------------------------------------------------------
All action functions are generated automatically, so there are only
two files you need to edit:
(1) src/generator.ml: Add your new action, parameters, description,
etc. to the big list called 'functions' at the top of this file.
(2) Edit/create a C file in daemon/ subdirectory which implements your
'do_action' function. Take a look at one of the numerous examples
there.
You will need to run src/generator.ml (from the top directory) which
regenerates all the auto-generated files, and then continue with the
ordinary build process.
Formatting
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Try to use GNU / Emacs default formatting, following the convention
used elsewhere in the source.
