Are strings allowed to extend for multiple lines?

[pushfoo]

Something like this:

outs "first line
second line"

[ligfx]

openc2e doesn't support multi-line strings (or bytestrings), would be interesting if the actual engine does

[caoscontroller]

Creatures 1 allows multiline string literals

[pushfoo]

@caoscontroller ty, noted. The issue is tagged with c2e rather than c1, but it's still useful.

[pushfoo]

@ligfx tl;dr: string literals can be valid in c2e caos, but the newlines get replaced at some point between parsing and display

Executing over the direct interface on lc2e seems to convert newlines into spaces. cat testfile | pyc2e inject (pyc2e) with this file:

outs "

test

new"

yielded the following output:

 test new

I can't seem to get ject to produce recognizable output, but running ject from within the CAOS console seems to be failing in general at the moment under lc2e. I may have forgotten how to use it properly, or I might have broken my install. I'll check in with discord to figure out what i'm doing wrong.

[pushfoo]

lc2e exhibits the same behavior for multi-line literals when injecting using ject as it does when fed the script though the port interface.
