WTM?! James did everything correctly!
- he checked our policy.
- he discovered the way to break up a long line. "Use a traiiling
backslash" is what I was hoping that you would discover if you did a

- he offered to take care of the patch.

Unix uses a backslash to break up a long command-line. The resulting
lines are parsed just like a "full command line".
ls \
-a \
-l \
*.png
does exactly the same thing as
ls -a -l *.png
