Package: wesnoth-server
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'd like to monitor the server through UNIX socket, according to a
mail from David White:

> First, set up a fifo to communicate with the server with. This means
> a named pipe which you have write access to, and the server has read
> access to when it starts. Invoke the server with the option --fifo
> <location-of-fifo>. If you don't specify a fifo, the server attempts

> Then, you can send the server the command 'status' by using echo
> "status" > /path/to/fifo

> The server will respond by outputting its current status on its
> stdout. Try it to see the format the status will be in. You can do
> this regularly (e.g. every 10 minutes) to build a graph of the
> number of users.

But this socket does not exist under the Debian package.

Could you please add support for this?

Best regards,
