I want to run a shell script with input to be created by an
applescript, something like:
do shell script "/usr/bin/unixapp <<$

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.
do shell script "cat <<END\nfoo\nbar\nEND"
returns:
"foo
bar"
Works for me, where the line endings are \n's. I didn't get that fread
error when using \r's either...
