All:
Is there a magic escape character to use if applying a multi-line 'banner' command from within a macro?
I've tried "^", "%", "+" so far to no avail.
When I attempt to apply the Macro global, it fails to read the second line of the macro.
I can confirm this behavior on :
- Stratix 5700 / IE4000 running: Version 15.2(7)E
- Catalyst C2960X running: Version 15.2(7)E1
--------------------------
IE4000(config)# macro global apply MACRO_CONFIG_BANNER
Enter TEXT message. End with the character '%'. <----- That should not be there
[Control+C] <----- Break out
%
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
Enter TEXT message. End with the character '%'.
%
[Control+C]
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

IE4000# sh run | begin MACRO_CONFIG_BANNER
!
macro name MACRO_CONFIG_BANNER

Google is coming up short on suggestions. Thanks for any advice, ~Brian
