Hey folks,

I'm trying to pass a multiline parameter to a build from a BASH command
line. My command looks like this:

/java -jar ~/files/jenkins-cli.jar -s http://<my jenkins url>  build -s
'Fundamental/math-flex' -p DESCRIPTION="$mydesc" -p
configspec_elements="$mycs"/

I have exported both variables as:

/export mydesc='Dry run'
export mycs='element /reuse /main/LATEST\nelement /reuse/ip /main/LATEST'/

When this gets into the jenkins job, the $mycs looks like this:

/element /reuse /main/LATEST\nelement /reuse/ip /main/LATEST/

I was hoping/expecting the "\n" to have been expanded, but, it wasn't ;(

How else can I get multiple lines trough the CLI interface?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Denis
