I'm not sure if I get the point, but isn't this what you want:
x = `` ($nl) { echo $x } # strips all newlines
or
fn deletenl {
* = `` ($nl) { echo $* }
while ( ! ~ $#* 0 1 ){ # echo all args but the last
echo $^1
shift
}
echo -n `` ($nl) { echo $^1 } # echo last arg without nl
}
x = `` () { deletenl $x }
To be honest, deletenl squeezes repeated nls into one.
Malte.
