it almost does: It has an Obiwan error: when the stepping back finds a ‘\0’, it returns a pointer to the 0 rather than the next character. But that’s easy to fix.

I was wondering if a better patch might be in another direction that keeps the “one string per entry” property: We could save those events as something like “modechange:OC” and then take a bit more effort when parsing those. What do you think?
