Posted - Sep 29 2006 : 11:24:38 AM To all who are writing or changing shell scripts -- if you want to split a long command line into multiple lines for readability, you can do so, but to join them together, all lines except the last line in that command must end with a backslash ('\'). No spaces after it, no nothing. Otherwise the lines will not be concatenated.
