bquote() handles tabs! Newlines, not so much :( But we can add support for newlines too.

I agree that a syscall would be better, more reliable. But if you need a quick fix, then stay on your current path. So let's at least get 6778894 fixed, and you could fix 6786256 for everything but newlines using the code I sent you. That would add value with little effort. Nico --
