The external handling in formats is specified in the corresponing specifications. ";" is certainly not correct for formats which natively support multiple values per key. Internally, if you have a data structure that represents multiple authors, you certainly do not set it to one author and a string with a bunch of semicolons seperating multiple authors Title: "Smile ;)" Author "Smily Face ;)" is not 2 Titles and not 2 Authors and software that cannot handle that should not be used as reference IMHO That said, anything that works is fine with me, But internally it will be better to use a representation that is universal, generic and simple, ";" may seem to be that but only as long as you do nothing with it and dont care about corner cases Ill leave this ";" question to everyone else, i have a backlog of quite a few things i need to work on I do intend though to apply my bugfix, as i dont want to leave that bug, even if that ends up reverted and replaced by some other solution thx [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB it is not once nor twice but times without number that the same ideas make their appearance in the world. -- Aristotle
