	Ah! :) 

rule=:  msg="%alert:char-to:\x22%" sid=%sid:number% ipscat=%proto:word% ipspri=%ipspri:number% n=%n:number% src=%src-ip:ipv4%:%src-port:number%:%interface:word% dst=%dst-ip:ipv4%:%dst-port:number%:%interface:word%

	The above worked perfect.  One thought,   It might be beneficial 
to make a "%field:quotestring" (or something similar).  Basically,  it'd
do exactly what char-to does,  but with a pre-set field (x22 in my
case).   My thinking is that it'll make rules "easier" to write.  Ie -

msg="%alert:quotestring%" "looks" nicer.  I could be wrong on this.  Of
course then you'd probably want to have several "preset" values.. ie 

	" ' : ( )

	Hmmph.. Might be easier to just stay with char-to.  This is
interesting because I thought char-to did something different.  Very
nice Rainer.  

	On a side note,  syslog-ng supports a $MSGONLY so my old problem
it moot.  ($MSG by defaults includes the program... hrmph).
