Hi Clemens,
Maybe it would be a good idea to either ignore control characters in the environment or show (escape) them properly? If I have these duplicate values, I cannot delete them afterwards (without an binary dump of my terminal) and... if I wrote them to flash occasionally... well, ok, I don't see any high priority here. It's just a little annoying.
Just for the records - for environments in flash the "md" command is of course your friend to see what special characters crept into the variable names. Other environment storage locations are left to the reader as an excercise. Note that this is only possible because the environment is saved in such an "unefficient way".
Cheers Detlev
