[This is a PR from Paul about improvements for mksandbox. CC to tech-pkg for comments -- agc]
Finally getting around to looking at PR 51992, it includes some excellent suggestions - thanks, Paul!
The attached diff should address the first 2 parts of the PR, still working on the third part.
Does anyone have any comments on these?
Thanks,
Al
PS. I tried a lot of different ways before landing on this one, which seems to be the
cleanest way.
I should have pasted what the operations look like:
