It's already happened with brltty's introduction of class,before,after (and perhaps other features). >This is drifting off-topic for this thread, and I haven't looked at the code >recently, but is the BRLTTY preferences file stored in a format that is >guaranteed to be independent of byte order and word size? Yes. >If not, I think it >should be replaced by a textual format, which would also reinforce the Unix >convention that configuration files, including those in a user's home >directory, are text files rather than binary. That also happens to be my personal "preference". >The cost would be negligible CPU usage in writing and parsing the text file. And in increased binary size, but, as stated in an earlier post, I really don't think we're still in the days of having to work overtime to keep it small. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
