Hello Markus,

Are you aware that the current implementation of __elevator_change() strips
leading whitespace but that with your patch applied leading whitespace is n=
o
longer removed from the elevator name? If you have a look at strim() in
lib/string.c you will see that in case of leading whitespace that function
does not remove the leading whitespace but returns a pointer to the first
non-whitespace character.

Otherwise this patch looks fine to  me.

Bart.=
