Line break in Twilio

I'm trying to format my Twilio SMS via ruby to have line breaks so I can send an SMS like so:

"Please enter your order as such:
- 3 beers
- 2 glasses of red wine"

I've seen suggestions like use \n for php or enter '%a0' but none of these has worked.

Solution

  • This doesn't work:

    r.sms "Please enter your order as such:" \n  
"- 3 beers" \n  
"- 2 glasses of red wine"

    This does work:

    r.sms "Please enter your order as such:\n" \  
"- 3 beers\n" \  
"- 2 glasses of red wine"
