Thank you again Chris.
After weeks of searching the net and examining tens of
solutions, I do believe that the entire approach to arrays
in bash has been redefined due to your expertise and opened
up new possibilities for myself and other users. Dare I say
that it's even worthy of a third book!
I nearly had the solution myself, but used double quotes
around "string newline" instead of single quotes, should have
known better. Thanks also goes to nDuff at #bash for his/her
suggestions for using printf.
