* David selby ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [030620 11:07]:Yep, sure does ... I didn't originaly think this would be of use till I realised I could literaly split the line up in vi, make the script executable and it came out as I wanted ...I thought it only worked on the command line.
Many thanks everyone, xmessage -file xxx seems to work, It seems to take the formatting from the file and not have a problem, strange it can't take it directly from "" however will remember this workaround.
It works with quotes if you do as Florian suggested:
xmessage "foo bar baz"
good times,
Vineet
This is a good way to go it.
Dave (many thanks Florian)
