Hi, I wanted to help improve the man page section for MyFamily in the light of today's MyFamily change [1]. I sometimes contact relay operators about their MyFamily configuration and a common request is: "Please send me an example" So I added an example to the man page (including the new multiline support in 031) - replaced "node" with "fingerprint" (no one is using nicknames anymore, or onionoo does not display fingerprints?) Are nicknames still supported? (Roger started to remove remaining bits of the past Named "world" so this might be another place?) - made clear that you can still have multiple fingerprints in a single line (if this will be deprecated at some point I can add a deprecation info) - added info that the fingerprint can be prefixed with $ - changed "This option can be repeated many times, for multiple families" to "This option can be repeated many times, for multiple fingerprints" (from one relay's view there is only one family) nusenu inline patch below (I can paste it to trac if you like) [1] https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/commit/?id=d76cffda601eed40d6a81eadb1240d98ee1e70a2 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/4998#comment:11 1735c1735 < [[MyFamily]] **MyFamily** __node__:: --- > [[MyFamily]] **MyFamily** __fingerprint__,__fingerprint__,__...__:: 1738,1739c1738,1741 < their identity fingerprints.
