I have a file `"Foo.md"`, which contains three lines:

```
Foo

Bar

```

I want `File.read("Foo.md")` to return `"Foo\n\nBar"` It does this when I run it from irb in the Terminal, but when I run it from a script such as

```
content = File.read('Foo.md')
puts content

```

it returns with the lines converted to actual returns. I need that variable as a single line for what comes next in my script.

To be clear: I'm not interested in changing the number of lines, just debugging to make sure the variable `content` is being passed as a single line.
