Good point, I've filed an issue for this, so we don't lose it:
https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/534
> To pay an amountless invoice lntb... 4 satoshis in c-lightning: lightning-cli pay lntb.. 4000
Note that I'd prefer the "msatoshi" field to be a magic string
(eg. "any") rather than omitting the parameter, since it's too easy for
a bug to omit the parameter.
Cheers,
Rusty.
