PC> In msged.cfg I have the following macro,

PC> Alias  af     "Areafix"         1:124/6108.0  pck   
"xx;xxxxx"

PC> The password shows up as only "xx", everything after the
';' is cutoff.

PC> ';' is part of my Areafix password.

PC> Not a bad bug, just thought you'd like to know about it.

What a shame.  ";" begins a comment.  I'll have to think about
that.  If I were to make it ignore ";" within "" then that would
make it dependent on the command formatting.  But I suppose that's
no worse than assuming people don't want to type ";" as part of
their commands.  BFN.  Paul.
