title: specifying newlines in pom.xml
body: <p>I need to generate a file with the dependency-jars of project.
  This can be done with the dependeny plugin.
  See below the snippet from the pom:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;plugin&gt;                   
        &lt;groupId&gt;org.apache.maven.plugins&lt;/groupId&gt;
        &lt;artifactId&gt;maven-dependency-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
        &lt;version&gt;2.10&lt;/version&gt;   
          &lt;execution&gt;            
            &lt;id&gt;list-dependencies&lt;/id&gt;
            &lt;phase&gt;package&lt;/phase&gt;
            &lt;goals&gt;              
              &lt;goal&gt;build-classpath&lt;/goal&gt;
            &lt;/goals&gt;             
            &lt;configuration&gt;
              &lt;prefix&gt;&lt;/prefix&gt;
              &lt;outputFile&gt;target/modules-list.txt&lt;/outputFile&gt;
              &lt;pathSeparator&gt;\n&lt;/pathSeparator&gt;                                                                                                                       
            &lt;/configuration&gt;  
          &lt;/execution&gt;           
        &lt;/executions&gt;            
      &lt;/plugin&gt;                  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, since I need each jar on a separate line, I tried to specify the <code>pathSeparator</code> to be a newline character. However, this does not work. I didn't find a useful way to specify a newline character in the pom.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas on how this can be achieved?</p>
