| Description |
|
If the REST API is encrypted, MaxCtrl should be able to determine whether it needs to use HTTP or HTTPS to talk with it. Currently the user has to specify the --secure flag for all commands when the REST API is encrypted which isn't very convenient. |

With the addition of the .maxctrl.cnf file, this isn't as needed as it used to be. If needed, the default value of --secure can be set to true there. |

I'll close this as Won't Do since the ~/.maxctrl.cnf configuration file can already achieve this. |
