Reason for Syntax Errors!?!
Authored by: neuroball on Sep 03, '03 11:00:27PM
All,

you might want to get rid of the backslashes at the end of each line of the last script. They just exist to make you aware that the whole long script has to be written on one line.

E.g.:
dosomething -somename \
-someothername \
-anothername

really equals dosomething -somename -someothername -anothername

mkay?
