Subject: regtool doesn't support REG_BINARY?
Message-Id: <20020220164728.LDCA1147.rwcrmhc52.attbi.com@C1649629-A.attbi.com>

I'm trying to use the regtool to swap caps-lock and control using this
incantation:

  regtool -m set \
  "machine\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\Scancode Map" \
  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 00 00 00 1d 00 3a 00 3a 00 1d 00 00 00 00 00

Unfortunately this produces a value of type REG_MULTI_SZ rather than
REG_BINARY (not very surprising).  Omitting the "-m" or supplying "-i"
yields a single REG_DWORD value.  From the docs and this experiment it
appears regtool doesn't support REG_BINARY.  Am I missing something?

Thanks,
