I'd like to use the continuation character \ in a cron job, but I get an error when I do.
I use "crontab -e" to edit the crontab and have this sort of thing: 30 5 * * * script varable variable \ variable-text when I try to save, I get this: crontab: installing new crontab "/tmp/crontab.kZ7WHF/crontab":122: bad minute errors in crontab file, can't install Does anyone know if there's a way to get cron to accept a continuation character? This is Debian Sid's (vixie) cron 3.0pl1-100. Cheers, David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
