ipv6calc currently doesn't support the following format:
network byte order, in octal notation with \-escaping
E.g. 2001:888:19f0:0:210:5aff:fe45:9b17 would be: \40\1\10\210\31\360\0\0\2\20\132\377\376\105\233\27
There is a non-zero "market" for this, as I felt the need enough to write a little program that does just this: Take an address, and translate it to that format :-)
Hmm, never seen. Where is the non-zero "market" located? Do you have the capabilities to enhance ipv6calc by yourself and submit patches? If nit, I can do it, but it would need some time (let me say 4 weeks). BTW: should there be a difference between full expanded, expanded or compressed format?
