Not sure if this is the place to post it (but would be interesting to
see if there's any other interest in any case) - if not, where should
I be sending this.

Probably a trivial issue (which could be just as simple to fix), but here goes:

The console logging of hlds on *nix machines, particularly when ssh'ed
and/or running under "screen" (multi-console app, common to many *nix
distributions) is disrupted by the use of extended characters in
people's playernames (which appears to be common practice).  Would
there be a possibility to strip and/or sanitize the log to remove this
problem?  Given that (AFAIK) all operations on players can be
performed using their steam id, there is no real need to see the
*exact* playername in the console log (however the disk-written logs
may not need this treatment).

Does this seem reasonable?  Comments welcome.


Vorn.
