He's right. I used "/" as the delimiter. I also screwed up the S1


However, it still just responds with the help listing.


[rd@rdhost ~]$ rmlsend PP S1 1 1 \!

rmlsend [--to-host=<hostname>] [--to-port=<port>] [<rml>|--from-file=<file>]

Where <hostname> is the name or IP address of the host to send the command to
(default = localhost), <port> is the UDP port to to send the message to
(default = 5859), <rml> is any valid RML code and <file> is the name of a file
containing valid RML code.  If '-' is specified as <file>, then rmlsend will
read the list of RML commands to be sent from standard input.

When specifying RML code on the command line, it will likely be necessary
to escape any special characters (such as spaces or bang [!] characters)
to protect them from the shell.

Examples:
 rmlsend LL\ TestLog\!
    Send the RML command 'LL 1 TestLog!' to the local host.

 rmlsend --to-host=host.mydomain.com --to-port=5858 --from-file=test.rml
    Send the RML commands in 'test.rml' to the system at 'host.mydomain.com' at
    port 5858.

 No.
 It's a command line solution.

 You need a way to tell the system that a space is not a delimeter,
 as it always is, so the \ is the "escape" character.
 It tells the system that the very next single character is to be
 taken literally, and not by its normal meaning.
 The same "escape sequence" applies to all special characters that
 have dedicated meanings.
 *, ,the \ itself, etc.
