I'm improving our way of adding printers for our users, reading from a file with 'ReadProfileString'.
kix command is like this:
Code:
$PrinterList = Split(ReadProfileString('%logonserver%\NETLOGON\PRINTER\Printer.ini', $ID, 'Printer'), ';')
$DefPrinter = ReadProfileString('%logonserver%\NETLOGON\PRINTER\Printers.ini', $ID, 'Standard')
For Each $Printer in $PrinterList
xxx
xxx
Next
When handling long printernames, the use of a ';' as a delimiter produces long messy lines in the ini-file. Instead It would be nice to use like a '@CRLF' instead as a delimiter.
Is there an easy way to accomplish this?

No - you can't span INI data over multiple lines. However, since you seem to have a file just for printers, the "Printer" section is redundant - try this: PRINTER.INI File:
The printer UNC Path becomes the value instead of the data, and the "1" enables it. Here's the pseudo-code concept:
Code:
$aPrinters=EnumINI(printers.ini, 'SomeID')
For Each $Printer in $aPrinters
$Status = ReadProfileString(printers.ini, $ID, $Printer)
If $Status ; if data is true (not zero), then map it
AddPrinterConnection($Printer)
If $Status = 'Default'
SetDefaultPrinter($Printer)
EndIf
EndIf
Next
EnumINI is a UDF.
