Hi John
\ is a line continuation character, so a line command can be broken across
multiple lines
Example
lb config noauto \
--apt-indices false \
--apt-recommends false \
--apt-source-archives false \
--architectures amd64 \
--bootloader syslinux \
--bootstrap debootstrap \
--debian-installer live \
--debian-installer-gui false \
--iso-application "xxxxxxxxx" \
--iso-publisher "xxxxxxxxx" \
--iso-volume "xxxxxxxxx" \
--archive-areas "main contrib non-free" \
--source false \
--memtest none \
--verbose \
--debug \
--win32-loader false \
--zsync false \
"${@}"
Hope that helps
Ozi
