Re: Namespace syntax

[Chip Seraphine]

OK, found it; trick is to look for "contexts", not namespaces.  We might 
want to slip a gratuitous use of the word "namespace" into the context 
description so that future keyword  searchers have a better time of it.

I'm trying what is documented in the Reference without luck.

I have in update.conf:

control:
   foo=   ( bar )


and in cfagent.conf:

   baz= ( ${update.foo} )



But attempts to use $(baz) later on in line yield a literal 
${update.foo} rather tha $(baz).   Does anyone else see this sort of thing?
