I really should have. I think I didn't quite see how it would help. I was wrong. I just changed print 'src=\"data to print 'src=\x22data in the "shelled" command and the command ran successfully, generating a temporary file containing the content to be added as the value of the img element's src attribute. On a whim, I tried this on Linux as well and things worked there as well. Would this make \x22 an acceptable change that will work everywhere just as it has on both Windows and Linux? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "asciidoc" group.
