Hi The enclosed patch will enable FlightGear users to dynamically modify existing, or add new protocol separators (for variables and lines) to XML configurable ASCII protocols by editing a file in their base package, rather than having to recompile fgfs, it will basically replace the hardcoded separators in $FG_SRC/Network/generic.cxx.
The patch has been created against the current code from CVS. regards M.
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!--
This will allow users to dynamically modify (or add) separators for ASCII based
XML configurable protocols by editing their base package - rather than forcing them
to re-compile fgfs for such minor changes.
This file will be used to retrieve separators for *variables*, as well as *lines* at RUNTIME.
The details are implemented in $FG_SRC/Network/generic.cxx, specifically in these two methods:
void FGGeneric::loadSeparators(void) // loads this XML file
std::string FGGeneric::resolveSeparator(std::string) // returns any match
