Perhaps someone knows offhand, to save me a lot of hacking.
Is it possible to "escape" a status message, so as to make a status column heading appear on two lines?
such as ~/bin/bb my_host "status 'uname -n'.MyColumn\nName green date cat mytest"
Or like that.
This seems to work on hobbit 4.20.
~/bin/bb my_host "status 'uname -n'.MyColumn<br/>Name green date cat mytest"

I don't think you can do that. If possible, it would involve writing the column-name as HTML, i.e. with a "<br>" for the newline. But I wouldn't be surprised if some parts of Xymon choked on those angle brackets as part of a status-name.

Turns out, <br> does not work, but <br/> does. My reading suggests the former is "non portable" while the latter will be, into the future, from an HTML point of view.
So far, other parts seem unaffected. Any parts I should attempt to test?
