Re: ExitNodes config use fingerprint rather than nickname

Sounds good, Nick. Unfortunately I have not been able to get any of the 3 formats to work. I'm using 0.2.0.25-rc (r14442) and specifying -- ExitNodes on the command line. The [warn] message "Failed to parse/validate config:
Invalid nickname '529436598DEE2E3AAA07490A563451934591373~Unnamed' in
ExitNodes line" also incorrectly identifies the fingerprint. The first character is being chopped off. In this case there should be a '8' at the
beginning of that fingerprint.

That is expected behaviour on the command line. the $ is interpreted to start a variable, thus the next character is also eaten. Try (on the command line) to put \$8 529436598DEE2E3AAA07490A563451934591373~Unnamed and it should work, I think.

I'm afraid a patch for this is beyond my current capabilities, but I would
be glad to assist in any way.

I hope that helps
