I was testing out SVN 9146 and spotted that the zone-transfer script is displaying the results in a slightly strange way, different to the behaviour seen with 4.68. I hope it still makes sense after some obfuscation, basically the full stops are incorrectly displayed if they're part of a string (IP addresses appear to be unaffected): SVN: | zone-transfer: | xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 SOA ns1\15yyyyyy\3net\0 server\15zzzzzz\-64net\0 | xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 MX xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 | xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 NS ns1\15yyyyyy\3net\0 | xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 NS ns2\-64yyyyyy\3net\0 | xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 A aa.bb.cc.dd | ftp\-64xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 CNAME | localhost\-64xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 A 127.0.0.1 | mail\-64xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 CNAME | www\-64xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 CNAME |_ xxxxxx\2co\2uk\0 SOA ns1\15yyyyyy\3net\0 server\15zzzzzz\-64net\0 4.68: | zone-transfer: | xxxxxx.co.uk.

It looks like the script itself has barely changed since January, so I presume something else internally has changed. Does anyone know what's at fault? Rob
It appears the script was relying on an old behavior that unprintable characters would be changed to a period, '.'. The script needs to be changed so that it uses periods instead.
