[Dnsmasq-discuss] extension of configuration files

Hallo all,

I prefer dividing "/etc/dnsmasq.conf" into some separate files, using  
"conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d".

Then dnsmasq reads all files in this directory - fine.
But (p.e.) slackware put sometimes configuration files with the  
extension *.new into such a directory and doesn't delete them if there  
is a file with the same name (but without this extension).

Could dnsmasq exclude *.new files from reading? Some other programs do  
so.

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
