Currently, DXVK is set up to read a value in a config file as starting from the first whitespace character after the = until either it reaches another whitespace character or the end of the line, meaning that some parameters (for example, d3d9.customDeviceDesc = Device Name Here) cannot be used properly within a dxvk.conf file as it will end up being read as d3d9.customDeviceDesc = Device.

Could escape character support be added so parameters with whitespace/special characters can be used?

It doesn't support string options because string options just didn't exist before the addition of D3D9 (and I'm not entirely sure why it's necessary; this smells like Sims 2 which only works with specific GPU models)

Guess we'll need to find some way to support those. Shouldn't be hard.

You should be able to use d3d9.customDeviceDesc = "Device Name Here" now.
