Is it possible to break a shell command for the "External Tool (Labs)" node into several lines?
As a starting point I had the shell command
cp %inFile% %outFile%
and that worked fine. I then tried to put each part of the command onto its own line, but that failed:
cp
%inFile%
%outFile%
and also adding single or double backslashes after lines 1 and 2 failed. Is there a way to make this work? The textarea supports multiple lines so I assume that there has to be some way.
Hi there. That functionality isn't available I'm afraid, so you'll need to keep the command as a single line. You could always construct the command as text, and then use the String Manipulation node to remove the newline characters.
