Subject: RFC: make MAINTAINERS email addresses easier to copy/paste
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 14:59:56 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200804291459.56300.bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> (raw)
I like to use display names for email addresses, e.g.,
"Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com>" instead of just
"bjorn.helgaas@hp.com".
The current MAINTAINERS file format makes it a nuisance to
copy both the display name and the actual address. So
I propose that we fold together the current "P:" and "M:"
lines using something similar to the filter below.
If we do this, we should fix a few inconsistencies in the
current file first so the script will work better. I'll post
a patch to do that as a response to this message.

#!/usr/bin/perl
# Combine name and email address for easier copy and paste.
# For example, this:
#
# P: Bjorn Helgaas
# M: bjorn.helgaas@hp.com
#
# becomes this:
#
# P: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com>
while (<>) {
if (/^P:(\t|\s{2,})(\S.+)/) {
if (defined($line)) {
print $line;
undef $line;
}
$name = $2;
$line = $_;
} elsif (/^M:(\t|\s{2,}).*?(\S+@\S+)/) {
if (defined($line)) {
$mail = $2;
$mail =~ s/^<//;
$mail =~ s/>$//;
print "P:\t$name <$mail>\n";
undef $line;
} else {
print;
}
} else {
if (defined($line)) {
print $line;
undef $line;
}
print;
}
}
