man 5 crontab:

       SHELL variable of the cronfile.   Percent-signs  (%)  in  the 
command,
       unless escaped with backslash (\), will be changed into newline
charac-
       ters, and all data after the first % will be sent  to  the 
command  as
       standard input.

Why not reading the docs and doing what its saying? I prefer going the
straight way than going such "workarounds".
