any way to upload a video with a multi-line description

[robertJene]

I want to upload videos with multi-line descriptions.

Say, for example, I have the description saved in a text box.

Then I run a script that spits out a command in a batch file.

I want all the lines of the description to upload, not just the first line

Example:
youtube-upload ^
--title="intro description test" ^
--description="multi line description" ^
--category="Music" ^
--tags="mutter, beethoven" ^
--default-language="en" ^
--default-audio-language="en" ^
--client-secrets="my_client_secrets.json" ^
--credentials-file="my_credentials.json" ^
--playlist="My favorite music" ^
"look of disapproval INTRO.mp4"

Try this:

description=`cat <<_EOF_
line 1
line 2
line 3
_EOF_
`
...
youtube-upload \
--title="intro description test" \
--description="$description" \
...
