I've successfully set up monitoring for, and the ability to log in to a
website on my xymon, and the content and https checks both work, but I'd
also like the content column to be affected by the response time.

 
The man page for analysis.cfg says I can use a DS tag to do so, but it also
says that there's a colon in the syntax...

DS column filename:dataset rules COLOR=colorname TEXT=explanation

 
The problem I'm having is that the rrd filename (which was created
automatically by xymon) has a colon in it.  How would I handle this while
setting up my analysis.cfg file?  Do I escape that colon somehow?
Double/single quote the filename?

Does anyone here know or do I have to dig into the source?  I was unable to
find an answer in the man pages.

 
TIA
