Well, eh....

    I think that is not easy work, because Nagios is disigned to work in
this way.
    But maybe i´m wrong,  i don´t investigate so much, but in "Nagios
plug-in development guidelines" it says "if you print multiple lines you´re
out of luck". I supose that this is not a gratuitous information.

bye...
