Hmmm... good to know.  I think that the pattern would work better as:
"LL_CHANNEL\s=\s\"(.+)\";$"
but I haven't tested that to see if it works all the time.

The expression should be able to extract the value of the C string, no 
matter what characters it contains.  Leaving aside the issue of why on 
earth we're parsing a .h file for input to a Python script, of course. I 
believe that the eventual goal is to generate llversionviewer.h from a 
template and configuration file, which will make this sort of problem go 
away.

Technically you should be allowed to use any string you want for the 
channel name; this is a bug.   Thanks for reporting it!
