Subject: sh -c and newline
Date: Mon, 05 Dec 2016 19:39:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <91DCAC3CB99C724EB365BB64677FBE7B1007BC@MX204CL04.corp.emc.com> (raw)
I can't seem to get sh -c to recognize newline. Tcsh -c works.
I'm using echo as an example but I'm actually trying to build a here-document.
%%%sh -c "echo \nhello"
nhello
%%%sh -c "echo \\nhello"
nhello
%%%sh -c "echo \\\nhello"
\nhello
%%%tcsh -c "echo \nhello"
nhello
%%%tcsh -c "echo \\nhello"
\nhello
%%%tcsh -c "echo \\\nhello"
hello
