+      <para>Be aware that Udev does not recognize the backslash for line
+      continuation.  The examples in this book work properly because both
+      the backslash and newline are ignored by the shell.  This makes the
+      shell send each rule to cat on only one line.  (The shell ignores
+      this sequence because the EOF string used in the here-document
+      redirection is not enclosed in either double or single quotes.  For
+      more details, see the bash(1) manpage, and search it for "Here
+      Documents".)</para>
