Here is upstream's answer: |Unfortunately, the patch provided is not really a very good idea. If there |is a quote later in the data (after the separating :), it would break things |up wrong. | |To do this right would require more complicated parsing or some creative |handling. I've come up with the following options: | |* Do complicated parsing |* Do backslash handling and use \x3a for the colon. |* Allow a name (like BANNER) to be created for a device. | |Of the three, I prefer the last. These device paths are long and fairly |meaningless, this would allow a meaningful name to be created for these |devices. And it would probably be the simplest. | |-corey He is also now subscribed here. Welcome, corey.
