Hi Christopher,
  I am aware of the input framework feature REREAD and in fact I already used it for other files. However, it is my understanding that this cannot be used for signatures files. But I'll be glad to be wrong on this point... :-)

Thanks
Mauro

Hello, Palumbo!

I'm not sure about the rule parsing but it might help to know that the input framework is capable of re-reading files:

https://docs.zeek.org/en/stable/frameworks/input.html#re-reading-and-streaming-data

Sorry if that's not much help, it's just a recent feature that I came across that may be useful to you.

Regards,
cmh
