I don't think it's worth it. My suggested error message is not optimal, though. It may have been misunderstood as "please add a device list or textual description, your choice" which would be clearly wrong. What about
"Programmer %s has no device list/textual description of the right type!\n"
that sounds a bit as if it is set but only the type is wrong IMHO.
therefore I'll use your first suggestion: "Programmer %s has neither a device list nor a textual description!\n"
yay, overengineering a message no one should ever see. i missed you ;)
and that was only slightly sarcastic, i really appreciate such feedback. :)
