Have either of you tried here documents? Here's a tested example:

================start of testscript================
#!/bin/bash
echo "Starting cat read lines from a here document ended by EOF"
cat <<EOF
line 1
line 2
EOF
echo "End of example here document"
=================end of testscript=================

Substitute gdb for cat and gdb commands for 'line 1' and 'line 2'. This
should work a lot better than echo because you can put as many lines as
you want in the here document. You can also use shell variables for text
substitution in it - see the bash manpage f0or details.
