[slurm-users] How can I get complete field values with without specify the length

[Marcus Boden]

Yeah, I wondered something like that too, as it makes some of my scripts 
quite fragile. I just tried your name on a test system and now calling 
squeue paints my cli yellow :D

You could write a job_submit plugin to catch 'malicious' input, but so 
far no user ever did something like that on our system, so I don't think 
that's necessary.

Best,
Marcus

>>> It would even be better to have the option to use an argument for these two options or even --parsable='`\000' like in `tr`. For now users can use "|" in jobname, account or comment which might break any parsing.
