split a long command line

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

In order to impove the readability of my script, sometime it is necessary to split a long line into multiple lines. For example, the initialisation of a multi-dimensional array.

 

I wonder if anyone of you know how to split a long line into multiple lines please.

 

Thanks!

There is no trick to splitting long lines into separate lines.  Just put your curser where you want to split and hit the enter/return key.  The parser doesn't care about the extra spaces and stuff.  Well, usually.  It does for certain things, like with heredoc or with outputting headers and stuff.  I'm sure you probably indent your code, right?  Well it's the same thing...
