Ooops, I forgot to mention that killthreshold defaults to zero
(thought, that it's obvious...).
The 'FAQ' has a new item:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to convert my old kill file to the new score file format?
Two rules (but no script...):
- insert "-1" at the beginning of each rule,
- if the pattern on the right side contains a regular expression insert "pattern" behind the "-1".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That should help to adapt your old kill file to scoring (& don't
forget to rename the file...).
