I'm moving free form data out of a RDBMS that has a lot of \n, \r\n, and \t characters.
I used "--escaped-by \\" (extra \ cause of bash), but I'm a little confused about what to do with this data now. I can't seem to find any tools that will honor the '\' escape char. TextInputFormat does not seem to. I'm working on replacing an existing in house tool w/sqoop that replace newlines with the literal string '\n'. I'd be happy to do as such but I don't see any way of doing so. I'm sure I'm not the first person to run into this so I appreciate any suggestions. -Mark
