base path with name search invalid syntax

[fbmoose48]

when using config:

 hwmon /sys/class/hwmon
  name: coretemp
  indices: [1]

returns

ERROR: /etc/thinkfan.conf:55: Invalid syntax:
name: coretemp
^

what is the correct syntax?

Note: the example yaml syntax also seems to be incorrect

What you have posted there is not a valid config file. At the very least, you're missing an enumeration dash in front of hwmon. Please read the config manpage: man thinkfan.conf. If you still need help after that, you'll have to post your entire config (the thing above looks like a snippet to me).
