wisecracker, you can split long lines like that with a backslash:
This does not actually add newlines to the resulting string, as you see.
I hope I don't have code formatting practices imposed on my scripts... in my experience enforced formatting practices usually make things less readable and harder to edit.
I have scripts which I want to convert in Linux format.
Note these scripts are in txt format.But I want to convert them in Linux, as DBA's will be using this script.
Any command or utility which converts tht files in proper Linux format.
Thanks in Adavce.

rcvpack
RCVPACK(1) [nmh-1.5] RCVPACK(1)NAME
rcvpack - append message to file
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/mh/rcvpack file [-mbox] [-mmdf] [-version] [-help]
DESCRIPTION
The rcvpack program will append a copy of the message to the file listed on its command line.
If the -mbox switch is given (the default), then the messages are separated using mbox (uucp) style delimiters. This is the format used by
most mail clients (elm, mailx, etc.).
If the -mmdf switch is given, then the messages are separated by mmdf style delimiters. Each message in the file is separated by four
CTRL-A's and a newline.
rcvpack will correctly lock and unlock the file to serialize access to the file, when running multiple copies of rcvpack .
In general, its use is obsoleted by the file action of slocal, although it might still have occasional uses in various shell scripts.
FILES
/etc/nmh/mts.conf nmh mts configuration file
