Hi. I recently upgraded to version 11, and noticed a change in how the "Filter Variable with Quote for AppleScript" action processes the newline control character \n
. The following macro has different results depending on which version you run it in:
In version 10.2:
In version 11.0.2:
So it looks like "Filter Variable with Quote for AppleScript" now replaces \n
with a literal "\n". This does not seem to happen with other control characters. Is this intended? I couldn't find anything about this here on the forum, or on any of the 11.0.x changelogs.
A lot of my macros make use of this action and I can work around this change just fine, but I figured I should ask if this is supposed to be happening in the first place before retroactively editing dozens of macros to accommodate for the new behavior.
First post! Thank you for all the advice, this forum is invaluable.
