-- Can't use it for the lines I need to duplicate, because I am already 
using the continue patch for them (with continue patch it is not 
possible to continue twice for the same tag, which is of course the 
right decision - because otherwise it would not be able to use it for 
complex rules)

I think it is not the continue patch that should be adapted for this 
function, but the" [] " code on reading out the style-file. changing it 
to [0x01 road_class=4 road_speed=7 resolution 24-21; 0x02 resolution 
20-18; 0x03 resolution 17-14] would be perfect.

The code is still usable (meaning working) as I just tried out. so it 
would only need to be extended. If someone wants to use it for lines 
where no "continue" is already in use, he of course can go ahead.
