[rt-users] Fwd: rt-cli enter long text into the interactive form

[Philipp Knoll]

Hi.

im trying to use the rt-cli to comment on a ticket with:

rt comment 1311875

..vim pops up, showing me the form:

Ticket: 1311875
Action: comment
Cc:
Bcc:
Attachment:
TimeWorked:
Text:
~     

i try to fill the text: field with ..well, text. 
as long as i use only one line, it works.

but if i enter multiple lines, even if the text is in " quotes, i get after :wq: 

# Syntax error.

Ticket: 1311875

Text: "alles
>> was
geht"


when i specify the text on the command line with "
1stline
2ndline
", it works. 
so there should be a way, right ?

CLI:
rt version
rt 0.02

RT:
RT 3.8.7


cheers,
thanks,
fil
