Summary:                    CUT() won't let you cut on a carriage return
Description: 
I'm trying to read in a file into the dialplan, and then parse each line of
the file with the CUT() function, but unfortunately have been unable to
make it work.

I've tried:

Set(LINE=${CUT(ENVELOPE,\n,1)})
Set(LINE=${CUT(ENVELOPE,\\n,1)})
Set(LINE=${CUT(ENVELOPE,\\\n,1)})
Set(LINE=${CUT(ENVELOPE,\r\n,1)})
Set(LINE=${CUT(ENVELOPE,\\r\\n,1)})
Set(LINE=${CUT(ENVELOPE,\\\r\\\n,1)})

But it seems it just cut on the literal letter ('r' or 'n' in this case).

And that should be fine because these files I'm pretty sure are just going
to be terminated with \n (Asterisk builds this file).

In this case it does seem like a bug to me... but I'm not sure how
invasive the change is. Do we need to ask Russell if this is a bug, or a
feature request?
