Comment #1 on issue 663 by pekka.klarck: Metadata given from command line
is not escaped
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=663
It seems that the metadata given from the command line is not escaped. Can
be easily demonstrated e.g with `pybot --metadata path:c:\temp\bar
tests.txt` and ought to be easy to fix too.
The reason that a newline was added and r removed in the original example
is that \r is the escape code for the carriage return. Try having \t or \n
in the value and you'll get similar effects.
