Hey there,
I'm trying to pull useful information out of a nessus report file (which
is just XML), and everything works fine except the informational data
portions. They're stored with string literal \n, and I can't figure out
an easy way to convert those to actual newlines. With tr, the best I can
get is removing all the n's, and I think it may be because bash is
confused at the order of escaping, if that makes any sense. Any help is
appreciated.
