Ah, a very nice idea, especially since it requires no work on my part!

I changed it to using cat with a heredoc, that should solve the
problem. In case you do not know these, you basically do:
command <<[-]delimiter
...
delimiter
And command will be executed with “...” as stdin.
If you add - it'll remove indent from the lines, and if you quote
delimiter, it won't do normal expansion on the lines, like $VARIABLES
(so sort of I should have done that in the Help command :) ).
