## HISTORY

sympa\_wizard.pl appeared on Sympa 3.3.4b.9. It was originally written by:

- Serge Aumont \<sa@cru.fr\>

  - Olivier Salaün \<os@cru.fr\>

  `"--batch"` and `"--display"` options are added on Sympa 6.1.25 and 6.2.15.

On Sympa 6.2.70, the most of functions provided by this program was reorganized and was integrated into `"sympa config"` command line, therefore sympa\_wizard.pl was deprecated.
