Argh. I changed the command used to 'echo "echo...' but forgot to update the report. Should be obvious enough what I meant anyway. echo "echo 12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789" (no newlines, only single spaces).
This works now, I think.
