# Rewrite a strings file to get rid of line break/whitespace combinations that get stripped when building with Gradle.
#
# Example:
#
# Account \"%s\" shrunk from
# %s
# to
# %s
#
#
# will be rendered as
#
# Account "account" shrunk from10MB to1MB
#
# when built with Gradle, but displays fine when built with Ant.
