support multiline string?

[fonghou]

Hi,

Is it possible to support multiline string? It seems [[...]] can't be used for that anymore, use """ ... """ instead?

Thanks!

Is there a reason why:

(var s "this is
a multi-line
string")

couldn't or shouldn't work?

@uvtc we should add support for that to the compiler; I believe it is simply an oversight.

In the mean time, it works with backslashes:

(var s "this is\
a multi-line\
string")

Good suggestion, just pushed an updated for this in commit 9f5c280. It was a very simple change to the parser.

Cool!
