forget the line 
 
...
then you do not need to go the way via multilineproperty
and wrap every line between \n ... \ =
...

not needed when using <loadfile property= ...>

i once had a problem when generating a property
file and java has the convention with \n line \  when it comes
to multiline properties ...

so you may use loadfile or concat

you may also go with concat, as Jan already mentioned,
then you do not need to go the way via multilineproperty
and wrap every line betwenn \n ... \ =

<concat>
        <fileset dir="Y:" includes="test2.txt"/>
 </concat>

when no destfile attribute specified it appears on stdout

result =

 [concat]     Bla   blubbbber


 [concat]                         asda
 [concat] ASDF
 [concat] 12345678

 [concat]     asdf

with commandline ant but  _caution_ also beautified in eclipse ;-))
 

Regards, Gilbert
