| Subject: | VDCT strips \ character from field definitions |

In VDCT the ‘\’ character, used to signal special, nonprintable, characters is stripped from all field definitions when a file is read in and are then permanently lost when saved. i.e.
field(OUT,"@$(PORT) {\x040011\x022WL>%s}{\x06}")
becomes
field(OUT,"@$(PORT) {x040011x022WL>%s}{x06}")
This is a common usage for drvAscii serial communication.
Does anyone have a solution?
I tried to submit a bug report for VDCT, but the link from the EPICS site didn’t work and the link from their site is password protected.
