Natively, exec strips the newline (and there are no occurrences of
"keenewline" in the source tree; I grepped). Here's a simple test
script (foo.exp):
set x [exec uptime]
set x2 [rsh_exec remotebox uptime "" "" ""]
note "local: >${x}<"
note "remote:>[lindex $x2 1]<"
No newline in either case, which is what I would have expected.
Cheers, Ben
