[Py-RRDTool-Users] New line weirdness

[Mark K. <mr...@eu...>]

I have a section of code that calls py-rrdtool as follows.

rrdtool.graph('test.gif','--start=-1days','--title="Demo Graph"',
'DEF:rtt=/var/log/nagios/rrd/172.17.2.1_PING.rrd:RTT:AVERAGE',
'DEF:max=/var/log/nagios/rrd/172.17.2.1_PING.rrd:RTT:MAX',
'COMMENT:"\n    maximum     average    current\n"',
'GPRINT:max:MAX:%7.2lf%ss',
'GPRINT:rtt:AVERAGE:%7.2lf%ss',
'GPRINT:rtt:LAST:%7.2lf%ss')

The data was gathered from calls to ping and seems to work fine.

However when I view the image that is created the text under the graph
is wrong.
There the \n from the COMMENT above should be I see A character which
looks like a V above a T
I have attached an example of a graph that shows the problem.

Thank you.
