Default Parsing project chunks in ReaScripts

Here are a couple of anomalies in the project file chunkss, making parsing in ReaScripts awkward.

Quote:
<VST "VST: MEqualizer (MeldaProduction)" MEqualizer.dll 0 "" 1296131379
vs
<JS "IX/MIDI_KeyMap II" ""
Parsing to extract the FX name traditionally looks for a space then another space followed by an opening bracket (; neither are present in the JS FX string

and
Quote:
PARMLEARN 12 12976 2
vs
PARMLEARN 5:wet 14000 2
Parsing to extract the data traditionally relies on the second element being numeric (it is the parameter number). The Bypass and Wet parameters added by Reaper to every FX have a text suffix.

Check if the line starts with VST or JS and then parse appropriately?

Not sure what you mean by "traditionally" here, since that's how the project files have always formatted them AFAIK.

By "traditionally", I just mean the ReaScripts that I have looked at.
