RemoteMaster fails to save button definitions

[Andy]

I was just about to post my first ever upgrade file and I noticed that not all the buttons I had intended were showing. Which was a puzzle as they work on the remote !

I posted the file at :
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/jp1/files ... ystem.rmdu

If one opens this file in RM, then assign "CD music skip >>|" to the "UP" button and "CD music skip |<<" to the "DOWN" button, then the output is an upgrade that works just fine.

Now save the file, and open it again. The "UP" and "DOWN" buttons are free again !

I had been warned that RM was a work in progress, but in fact I'm HUGELY impressed with it. I hope this bug report helps to polish it even more

p.s. Even as I type this I notice that the saved file uses a lot of the "|" character, and I used that in my button name (because ">>|" best represents the symbol on the button on the original remote). I'll try knocking the symbols out of my button definitions and report back.

Yes, as soon as I got rid of the "|" symbol in the button definitions I got a file that would save and restore the same way.

I guess to make it idiot-proof (=Andy proof) the use of the "|" symbol would need to be disallowed on the Functions tab.
