Aha, perfect – thx. Maybe it should be noted in the man page for the "-p"/"-P".

But this leads to another question: there is no well defined character set for allowed job names, and I can have a job:

$ sbatch --job-name="fu"$'\007'$'\033[32m'"bar" slurm-job.sh

which might make some noise when using `squeue` and messes up the output?
