Hey Ray,
Yes it is, but the most secure parsing code is that which doesn't exist.
I'm confident in the one I wrote for the new PE/

Hey Mike,
Thanks for your reply!
Well, this switch is not well-documented. Looking now at both the
generation code and the emitted code, it does not generate a package
list like my code does, but separate data variables (strings and images)
that cannot easily be passed to HiiDatabase as-is. H
