And this seems to work inside the st.cmd file:

epicsEnvSet IOCSH_PS1 "ABC\
DEF> "


../../bin/darwin-x86/example st.cmd 
. . .
############################################################################
iocRun: All initialization complete

#seq sncExample, "user=ericHost"
ABC

Anybody happen to know of a way to include a newline in the IOCSH_PS1 value?


I can include one by manually typing the command in to the IOC shell after it is started:

epics>
epics> epicsEnvSet IOCSH_PS1 "      <---- Ctl+V, Ctl+J typed here....
becoladaq> "

becoladaq>

becoladaq>


But I cannot find any way to do this from the st.cmd startup script.  I have tried using "\n", hex, octal values, etc.  Nothing seems to work.
