Terminix fails on load (parse) a previous saved session file (malformed JSON)

Terminix fails on load (parse) a previous saved session file (malformed JSON)

Example (real) of an automatic saved session file

The problem is in the value format for ratio field:

{
    "child": {
        "child1": {
            "directory": "\/home\/theuncanny",
            "height": 494,
            "profile": "2b7c4080-0ddd-46c5-8f23-563fd3ba789d",
            "readOnly": false,
            "synchronizedInput": true,
            "type": "Terminal",
            "width": 1914
        },
        "child2": {
            "directory": "\/home\/theuncanny",
            "height": 490,
            "profile": "2b7c4080-0ddd-46c5-8f23-563fd3ba789d",
            "readOnly": false,
            "synchronizedInput": true,
            "type": "Terminal",
            "width": 1914
        },
        "orientation": 1,
        "position": 50,
        "ratio": 0,5,
        "type": "Paned"
    },
    "height": 988,
    "name": "Default",
    "synchronizedInput": false,
    "type": "Session",
    "version": "1.0",
    "width": 1914
}

"ratio" field value format:

• Original and incorrect (comma character): 0,5
• Correct (point character): 0.5

Is my guess correct: your locale is not en_US?

[gnunn1]

Are you in a country that uses the comma character as a decimal separator? I think this is a bug in D's JASON library that I worked around elsewhere.

I've also had this problem with yajl :)

@f2404 @gnunn1 You both are right, my locale is es_ES.UTF-8.
