Compfilter description is missing in the COMPISTE page about mapserver-documentation

@LarsSchy - does this keyword have any effect on the output? Looking at the code it doesn't appear to be used anywhere: https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/search?q=COMPFILTER

The RFC states: COMPFILTER "foo" #reserved for future use - https://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-113.html#proposed-enhancement so maybe it was added in preparation for future development?

[LarsSchy]

Yes, it has effect. I created one example mapfile that uses all five of those filters today.

The original info I read, is in this users-list entry by Thomas B.

Sorry yes, the code snippet was truncated. It is indeed used in loadLayerCompositer.

Glad You found it :-)
