Hi I am trying to create a text file that has several lines which can be viewed in Windows notepad. at the moment if I use echo or printf "hi there\nnext line" the poutut in notepad looks like "hi there[]next line" but I cannot produce a new line. Wordpad gets it right but that is not the issue as a piece of Windows software must read the text file and fails so far. Any help most greatfully accepted Mike -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
