can specify a number of files by separating the names with a
':' colon. So if you wanted a job to open /dev/sda and /dev/sdb
as the two working files, you would use
- filename=/dev/sda:/dev/sdb. If the wanted filename does need to
- include a colon, then escape that with a '\' character. For
- instance, if the filename is "/dev/dsk/foo@3,0:c", then you would
- use filename="/dev/dsk/foo@3,0\:c". '-' is a reserved name,
- meaning stdin or stdout. Which of the two depends on the read/write
- direction set.
