[Bug]: very long "long name" about firmware HOT 7 CLOSED

You can easily replicate this with
meshtastic --set-owner '''tbeamer Line1
Line2
Line3'''

from firmware.

I would have to allow them to work as line breaks on iOS

from firmware.

The issue you're seeing has nothing to do with /n (which is just two normal characters and not a special escape sequence)

I tried reproducing by setting the name using several variations via the python cli with no impact on how the nodes table rendered.

from firmware.

They are newlines

from firmware.

\n is a new line, /n is two regular ascii characters
and yes, i can replicate this on my nodes (images in the discord channel)

from firmware.

@thebentern I think we need to replace \n with a space

from firmware.

may want to do the same with other characters. \t for example does some "interesting" things

in the IOS app it just looks like extra spaces

--set-owner "Cisien $(echo -e '\t\t')Rak"

from firmware.
