If you change fstab(5) to accept "quoted arguments", then you would have to change getfsent() so that it can properly parse an /etc/fstab with quoted arguments. Then you would have to verify that clients of getfsent() such as mount(8) and quotacheck(8) still worked. If you could get that to work, that would be quite nice. -- Craig Rodrigues rodrigc_at_crodrigues.orgReceived on Fri Oct 19 2007 - 01:42:25 UTC
