Subject: Add a more verbose description for the --enable-extended-host-patterns option.
X-Git-Tag: v_3_0_16~125
X-Git-Url: http://www.privoxy.org/gitweb/@default-cgi@/faq/%22https:/user-manual/static/@default-cgi@show-url-info?a=commitdiff_plain;h=538d2d8f789a112de939f5190e1691938d73d98a;p=privoxy.git

Add a more verbose description for the --enable-extended-host-patterns option.

As #2892308 shows, the old one wasn't particularly helpful.
