[Swift-user] Re: format of multi lined functions in SWIFT

The multilinedness you show in your example command-line looks like its 
only for readability.

I think you could equally well (behaviour wise) remove all the \newlines 
and have it all one line.

If so, then you don't need to pass any new line characters through to the 
app.

In Swift you can split parameters over multiple lines anyway, without 
needing any special separator character - the command is terminated when a 
; is reached.

So you can probably write something like this:

myapp "-jobs" "4" "-input"
"-num_stimts 12"
"-stim_file" "1"  "$current_dir/$x'[0]'" "-stim_label" "1" "classaction"
  .
  .
  .
;
