Your email client wrapped the lines, I hope I was nevertheless able to
interpret everything correctly.

Are you sure this ``+1'' is evalutaed as expected?

On the lines following a ``module'' statement either use ``echo -n''

Please try what I suggested above and see whether that improves the
situation.
