title: passing new lines in command line argument?
body: <p>I loaded up a small console app that simply reads and prints the first command line argument passed to the program to the console.</p>
  
  <p>I want to pass a newline to the argument I tried this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>prog.exe \n  --&gt; outputs \n
  prog.exe "sfs \n sfff" --&gt; outputs sfs \n sfff
  prog.exe "ff \\n ff" --&gt; outputs ff \\n ff
  prog .exe "ff \\\\n ff" --&gt; outputs ff \\\\n ff
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there some other escaping I'm suppose to use?  Or is there some function I have to call on args[0] to process escaped characters before outputting it to the console?</p>
  
  <p>To clarify, I'm trying to pass a string to my program that has newlines in it.  The outputting to console was being used as a test.  I could have just as easily inserted a debug break line and inspect the contents of the variable.</p>
