Sets the barcode option string.
The option string consists of at least one name/value pair followed by zero or more name/value pairs separated by space characters.
The format is: name=value{ name=value}.
A name must be a valid predefined option name. Values can be given in the following ways:
- As Simple Values.
Simple values are passed as they are. Spaces must be escaped by a preceding "\\". Valid values for boolean options are \e true and \e false.\n
e.g.: <tt>NAME_BOOL=true NAME_NUMBER=123 NAME_DOUBLE=123.45 NAME_TEXT=ABC NAME_WITHSPACE=ABC\\ abc</tt>
\li As <tt>Text Values</tt>.\n
Text values are surrounded by single quotes. They may contain spaces which don't have to be escaped.
Single quotes that occur in the text have to be escaped by a preceding "\".\n
e.g.: <tt>NAME_TEXT='ABC' NAME_WITHSPACE='ABC abc' NAME_WITHQUOTE='Robin\\'s Nest'</tt>
\li As <tt>Complex Values</tt>.\n
Complex values are surrounded by curly braces "{...}". Complex value may consist of other simple, text, or complex values.
e.g.: NAME_COMPLEX={NAME_TEXT='ABC' NAME_NUMBER=123}
