Are you quoting the value? Within single quotes, all characters are treated literally, including backslash and newline characters. Other than that, backslash-newline is always discarded. Also, ensure that you don't have CRLF line terminators. CR is treated as whitespace, and trailing whitespace is normally harmless, but backslash-newline is only recognised if the newline immediately follows the backslash, without any intervening whitespace. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
