Apologies if this is answered elsewhere, I found nothing in the documentation (could be added?) or searching google/forums.

How can I use multiple options in a property? Is it supported? Comma-delimited perhaps? For example, I want to use drop-last-lf and escape-cc for a single property such as:

%msg:::drop-last-lf,escape-cc

Is that possible/correct?

TIA

• Custom written rsyslog.conf?
• Maintenance Contract?
• Installation support?

good point - I, too, need to check the code

yes, they are comma-delimited. So your sample is correct, except that it is missing the closing % . Thanks for pointing this out, will add it to the doc.

From the new doc:

To use multiple options, simply place them one after each other with a comma delmimiting
them. For example "escape-cc,sp-if-no-1st-sp". If you use conflicting options together,
the last one will override the previous one. For example, using "escape-cc,drop-cc" will
use drop-cc and "drop-cc,escape-cc" will use escape-cc mode.

If you think some other text, or corrections, would make for a better to understand description, please post suggested text

Thanks,
