StdoutRead I lose line end characters if I use clipput()

[E1M1]

I am trying to copy cmd output to clipboard but I lose line end characters when I don't use msgbox to display result.Here you can see my script if you run it you will see that msgbox will show text nicely but when you try paste text somewhere, its all one long line.How I could keep line end characters when I copy/paste it?

#include <Constants.au3>
$Wcmd = "ping -a www.neti.ee"
Local $foo = Run(@ComSpec & " /c "&$Wcmd ,  @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
Local $line,$text
For $n = 1 To 3 Step 0
    $line = StdoutRead($foo)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
    $text = $text & $line
Next

MsgBox(0, "STDOUT read:", $text)
ClipPut($text)

Thanks for help!

if y paste your text in notepad did you try "in notepad" from meny :Format: :Word Pad: to see if itl work better ^^

i did paste in MS Word and i dont have one line problem.

well I replaced LF with CRLF and then it worked but I can understand why command "help" gets f**ked up then -.-

IF StringInStr ($alltext,@LF)
StringReplace($alltext,@LF,@CRLF)

commands help and dir were displayed correctly before adding these lines above. but If I remove these lines, command "ping -a www.address.com" will not have linebreaks.

I need some other method to make it completable with window's notepad and wordpad.

Thanks
