I want to run a shell script with input to be created by an applescript, something like:

do shell script "/usr/bin/unixapp <<$
line 1
line 2
line 3
$"


I can get this (the part in quotes, obviously) working fine in Terminal, but I get an "fread error 0" when trying this from AppleScript.

I've tried placing a backslash at the end of the lines, but the Applescript compiler just removes them.

Are you putting semi-colons at the end of the lines? What is the _actual_ script you're having problems with?
