No, you cant make up directives. :)<br>
<br>
And according to the docs (v1 and v2), you cant use wildcards in
hostextinfo either. Eg, this wouldnt work:<br>
<br>
<div><font color="#330033"><font size="2"><span
 class="284391119-03022006">define hostextinfo {<br>
        host_name      linux-*</span></font></font></div>
<div><font color="#330033"><font size="2"><span
 class="284391119-03022006"></span></font></font><font color="#330033"><font
 size="2"><span class="284391119-03022006">        notes_url      
/nagios/man/host_notes/linux/$HOSTNAME$.html<br>
        icon_image      /base/redhat.gif<br>
        icon_image_alt  RedHat Advanced Server<br>
        }</span></font></font></div>
