Faced the same problem I think. I could only come up with this:
<property name="nl" value="${line.separator}" />
<echo file="${logfile}"
message="blabla${nl}"
append="yes" />
<echo file="${logfile}"
message="more blabla${nl}"
append="yes" />
I think I remember trying:
<echo file="${logfile}" append="yes" />
Blabla
more blabla
</echo>
and that it didn't work correctly. I'm not sure I tried:
<echo file="${logfile}" append="yes" />
Blabla${nl}
more blabla${nl}
</echo>
It may have had my newline with still the extra incorrect newline for my
platform (W2K). I would have expected <echo> to replace the Text with proper
line termination for the current platform (or a target os), but it didn't or
I couldn't figure out how for sure. Bug???

Subject: new line in echo
Is there a way to force a new line in echo task
I tried the following, but it did not work.
<echo file="${logdir}/${logfile}" append="true">WmlDeviceAdapter
Failed\n</echo>
I do not want to do the following for the end of the line.
<echo file="${logdir}/${logfile}" append="true">WmlDeviceAdapter Failed
</echo>
thanks for the reply,
