As the period is just a placeholder for the newline (0x0a) the output would be

String1
String2

Which is correct.

All commands should give

String1
String2

So to me it looks like everything works just fine. If you can reproduce the
conditions where the output is "String1" and "tring2" please let me know.
Otherwise it should be ok to change the testcase to expect "String1" and
"String2"

Thanks a lot
Mathias
