Bug#414159: siege manpage var asg example inconsistent with actual usage in urls.txt
Package: siege
Version: 2.65-3
Severity: minor
The siege manpage has the example:
HOST = homer.whoohoo.com
http://${HOST}/index.html
which does not work in actuality with the urls.txt file due to the spaces surrounding
the equals (=) sign. Inclusion of spaces does not work for me while the absence does.
So, either the manpage needs to be changed to reflect the behavior or the parsing of
the urls.txt file needs to be changed to handle spaces.
