COMMAND LIST
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
To facilitate faster adding of files, etc, you can pass a list of commands all
|
||
|
at once using a command list. The command list beings with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
command_list_begin
|
||
|
|
||
|
And ends with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
command_list_end
|
||
|
|
||
|
It does not execute any commands until the list has ended. The return
|
||
|
value is whatever the return for a list of commands is. On success
|
||
|
for all commands, OK is returned. If a command fails, no more commands
|
||
|
are executed and the appropriate ACK error is returned.
