Thank you, Shane!

But whenever I hit Save, the editor decide to replace the \n with line break in the script and the input arg is replaced with a blank.

The easiest solution is to use the property linefeed instead. An alternative in Script editor is to go to Preferences -> Editing and check "Escape tabs and line breaks in strings".
