title: Crontab Command Separate Line
body: <p>I have two python scripts:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#1. getUrl.py # used to collect target urls which takes about 10 mins and used as the input for the next script
  #2. monitoring.py # used to monitoring the website.
  
  00 01 * * * /usr/bin/python /ephemeral/monitoring/getUrl.py &gt; /ephemeral/monitoring/input &amp;&amp; /usr/bin/python /ephemeral/monitoring/monitoring.py &gt;&gt; /ephemeral/monitoring/output
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I put the this command in crontab and wondering how could I write that long command into two or three lines. Something like the python line separator example below but for Crontab command, so it is more readable:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; print \
  ... 'hel\
  ... llo'
  helllo
  </code></pre>
