Could you tell me if there is a way to escape characters in elogd.conf? Particularly, I want to have a drop-down "Keyword" attribute where one of the options is "Spelling, grammar and typos.". This invariably gets split into "Spelling" and "grammar and typos". I've tried "\,", ",,", "%," and "%27", to no avail.


Just put it in quotations, like
Options Keyword = "Spelling, grammar and typos", Other

that will do the job.
