[slurm-users] Re: How do I get the information available from `scontrol show job` in a format I can safely parse?

One correction to my own answer: --separator delimits fields but doesn't escape newlines, so a comment containing one still breaks the record. On older Slurm the safe route is sacct --parsable2 rather than the CLI job view, or restricting what can go in a comment. The --json / --yaml path remains the right answer on 21.08+. Jim
