[rrd-developers] Re: <RRD::TIME::NOW ...> embedded in <RRD::GRAPH ...> bug?

[Tobias Oetiker]

Hi Steve,

rrdcgi uses shell semantics when it comes to quotes ... so

  <RRD::GRAPH okay.gif
    --title "<RRD::TIME::NOW '%a%b%d%H:%M%Z%Y'>"
    DEF:in=test.rrd:in:AVERAGE AREA:in#00ff00:input
  >

showld work ... as well as

  <RRD::GRAPH okay.gif
    --title "<RRD::TIME::NOW %a%b%d%H:%M%Z%Y>"
    DEF:in=test.rrd:in:AVERAGE AREA:in#00ff00:input
  >

cheers
