New Line on PHP CLI
I have a php CLI script and cannot get the output to break on new lines. I do
echo 'this is my text\r\n';
echo 'next line';
This gives
this is my text\r\nnext line
Any ideas about how to get the output on different lines?
Solution 1:
Use double quotes ".
echo "next line\n";
Additional you can use the system-dependent constant PHP_EOL
echo "this is my text" . PHP_EOL;
Solution 2:
Use double quotes instead. ".
Solution 3:
Escape sequences are only parsed when inside double quotes, not single quotes.
