llList2String and escape characters

hmm.... if my string within a list contains an escape character, it is not extracted correctly by llList2String.

for instance, if llList2String(foo, 0) returns "line1\nline2", when i try to use that string, it ignores the newline and displays:

line1\nline2

instead of :

line1
line2


is this a bug (new or known), expected behaviour, or ????

Not pretty but I believe this will work:

llDumpList2String(llParseStringKeepNulls(llList2String(foo, 0), ["\\n"], []), "\n";

Least ways I have some code that uses this and it seems to work.

Thanks Pale - I'll give that a try
