Hi,
i have a script that reads and writes linux paths in a file. I save the
path (as unicode) with 2 other variables. I save them seperated by ","
and the "packets" by newlines. So my file looks like this:
path1, var1A, var1B
path2, var2A, var2B
path3, var3A, var3B
....
this works for "normal" paths but as soon as i have a path that does
include a "," it breaks. The problem now is that (afaik) linux allows
every char (aside from "/" and null) to be used in filenames. The only
solution i can think of is using null as a seperator, but there have to
a cleaner version ?
You could use a tab character '\t' instead.
That just breaks with a different set of filenames.
How many filenames contain control characters? Surely that's a bad idea.
