[syslinux] constants and line continuation

Hallo, Shao,

But that's a prefix for all config files. I like to put several config  
data, vmlinuz, initrd etc into their own subdirectories, p.e. one for  
clonezilla, one for udpcast, one for grml.

And then it's a fine solution to declare

        Label udpcast
        Path udp
        kernel $Path/vmlinuz
        append initrd=$Path/initrd.gz

etc.

But maybe that's very much work for a small enhancement - it's a kind of  
"nice to have".

Viele Gruesse!
