I'd vote for just replacing # with another special character such as - or : or / when displaying logical indexes. Those are not very nice, but that's the best I have on my keyboard :) € lstopo - Machine(993MB) + Socket0 + L20(2048KB) L1:0(32KB) + Core:0 + P0 L1:1(32KB) + Core:1 + P1 € lstopo - Machine(993MB) + Socket0 + L20(2048KB) L1-0(32KB) + Core-0 + P0 L1-1(32KB) + Core-1 + P1 I think it's better to always have a special character between the type (which sometimes ends with a digit) and the index.
