Adding userdata as a single line. Raised (hashicorp/terraform#150) in the hopes that this can later be cleaned up.

a HEREDOC style of usage would be a great enhancement as it would make user_data strings much more readable in the *.tf files. |
|
even better would be to load them from external files user_data = "./my_user_data_file" That would keep the *.tf much cleaner |
|
Agreed. It would be nice if both were an option. |

I opened this a few days ago, issue #145, perhaps it should be marked as a duplicate? |

@mattsoftware Indeed it should. |
