Update coverage of parser.escapeControlCharactersOnReceive parameter
Looking at some options I had disabled in my configuration, I saw a doc comment of mine that referenced these older pages:
- http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/rsconf1_controlcharacterescapeprefix.html
- rsconf1_escapecontrolcharactersonreceive.html
- http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/configuration/input_directives/rsconf1_escapecontrolcharactersonreceive.html
- http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/rsconf1_escapecontrolcharactersonreceive.html
Some observations:
- These are old doc pages (already have a separate issue for reviewing and retiring them)
- The http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/rainerscript/global.html page does not list this parameter, but probably should
- It would probably be useful to update the parser object page (http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/configuration/parser.html) with a reference to this parameter (loosely related?)
I'll try to take a stab at some of these items in the next day or so.
On a related note, I assume that pulling in content via imfile constitutes "receiving" a message in re to the parser.escapeControlCharactersOnReceive
name?
Some pages to update to replace the obsolete legacy
configuration format names with advanced
configuration format names:
- http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/configuration/properties.html
- http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/configuration/templates.html
