Carriage Return in files.
I write to a file using the
<echo message="line.txt
line2.txt" file="myfile.txt" append="true" />
construct. How do I make ant insert a Carriage Return after line.txt in the
file myfile.txt as it writes to it?
Thanks

This looks better
<echo file="myfile.txt" append="true">This is
a multiline echo
</echo>
but interestingly it creates Unix style files on my Windows box. I might
look into that.

Would you believe:
<echo file="myfile.txt" append="true"
message="line.txt
line2.txt"/>
(Unless someone knows a more elegant way.)
