Hello,

At :

        https://wiki.clamav.net/Main/UpgradeNotes095

I read :

**********************************
In clamd 0.95 it is recommended to prefix all commands with the z 
character, to indicate that the command will be deliminated by a '\0' 
character; clamd will then continue reading until a '\0' character is 
read. This is similar to the n prefix that was supported in 0.94 too, 
and which is still accepted (indicating a \n terminator). Clamd honours 
the terminator in its replies.
**********************************

About the "which is still accepted". Does this means that in some future 
release, the n prefix will no more be accepted ?

A suggestion : clamd could also accept commands terminated with "\n\0" 
and remove the "\n" at the end of the command if present.

JM
