[Xorp-hackers] Template files

[Victor Faion]

OK, I understood it correctly then. If a process relies on another
process for all of its configuration and has no state itself, could
you have an empty template file? Maybe something like this:

protocols {
  empty-protocol {
    %help: short "No configurable options";
  }
}
