I was wondering what I should do to enter a carriage return after each
add-apt and I didn't want to ask so.... I did a search for the information.
I discovered that to do it I just need to put a '\r'. Cool? I thought
so.... until I ran the command. After running the command it spat out:

$ for rep in ppa:dhor/myway ppa:hugin/hugin-builds ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp
ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair; do sudo add-apt-repository $rep\r ; done
[sudo] password for bmike1:
'This PPA does not support trusty'
Cannot add PPA: ''This PPA does not support trusty''.

I'm pretty sure the problem is the \r because it doesn't say that when I
hit the return key.
My websearch was fruitless so..... will I just have to press enter
