[SOLVED] RS232 Bug?

[davegravy]

I just did my first update in a few months and lost my TV's RS232 control. I discovered in webadmin that all the control codes had their slashes removed.

For example, what was previously

Code:

<$"\x02POF\x03"$>

is now

Code:

<$"x02POFx03"$>

and it won't let me re-insert the slashes.

1. Is this a bug?
2. Is there a workaround?

Thanks,

Dave

Answered it for myself

1. Is this a bug?

Maybe

2. Is there a workaround?

Put double slashes in, and LMCE will strip only the first slash. Problem solved.

Thanks merkur2k. I tried to run an update/upgrade but it shows no packages for upgrade. Is there a package I should check for its version#?

It could be useful to know what version (810 or 1004) you are using?
