The usage text for tl-config will print "hivetool" instead of "tl-config". It makes sense since tl-config only wraps hivetool, but it is confusing for the user since we want tl-config to be used over hivetool. > $ tl-config --help > hivetool [options] [type:]parameter[=value] ... > > -a,--all-entries Print all parameters and values in a folder > -i,--import <file> Import all parameters in specified file > -p,--purge <file> Remove parameters in specified file which exists elsewhere > -R,--recursive When using -a, ascend folders recursively > -r,--root <file> Specify root hive file.

(In reply to Frida Flodin from comment #0) This was the output with 4.16.0 server installed. Now with bug 7889 the output is a bit better, but still mentions hivetool nevertheless: > $ tl-config --help > Usage: hivetool [options] [type:]parameter[=value] ... > > Options: > -E folder as -e, but print all parameters in specified folder > -R, --recursive when using -a, ascend folders recursively > -a folder, --all-entries folder > print all parameters and values in a folder > -e VAR=parameter, --eval VAR=parameter > print parameter value in format suitable for > assignment to shell variable, via evaluation > -h, --help show this help message and exit > -i <file>, --import <file> > import all parameters in specified file > -p <file>, --purge <file> > remove parameters in specified file which exists > elsewhere > --version prints the ThinLinc version and exits > -x, --export when using -e,-E, export variables > > type is one of: string, bool, integer, float, binary, string_list, > bool_list, integer_list, float_list, binary_list. Default is string
