In the newest version, you can call the report by its name :-) > At the same time, as the result of this command is a table, there > should be two delimiters instead of one.

Currently i'm using a function, already defined in the report source. Newlines and spaces are compressed in this variant. Quoting of the separators(strings!) is not implemented yet. I can add a secong option for line separators. If this is used, i could activate the separator quoting. > Another problem is that this solution is not adequate for an > automatic GUI that should be useful for any fossil database.

The mapping should be configured in the gui. I'll take a look, how to implement a fully quoting report output and i'll add the list columns command. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
