If I try using the '--shell' mode in a bash script file (on osx) simply like you quote it, the script doesn't work (i.e. the new lines with the commands are not seen by the inkscape process in shell mode - afaiu they need to be piped as stdin to the inskcape process).
Please attach the batch file too.
