Ah, got it. How about: 2.10 dladm parseable output The format of parseable output of dladm show-* subcommands is currently not consistent (different subcommands have a different output formats.) A preferred output format is currently used by show-wifi, scan-wifi, show-secobj, and show-linkprop. In order to bring uniformity across all show-* parseable output, this case makes the other show-* subcommands' parseable output conform to that format. It is: <key>="<value>" [<key>="<value>" ...] Every value is explicitly quoted to better support values with embedded space characters, and preceded by a <key>= identifier string. -Seb
