Description
it would be great to have an ablility to send multiline messages
i can see 2 possible solutions:
use some special char for linebreaks or
use something like
/startmsg
asdfasf
sdfsa
fs
sf
sdf
/commitmsg

Interesting from my POV. Only special characters seems realisitc (something like %%n translated to \n)

I guess that Anton want this feature to paste a block without edit it. So the hack to replace %%n with a \n isn't a solution.
Anyway, I don't like the idea of startmsg and commitmsg commands too.

actually, i have here running a custom hacked build which uses g_string_compress (do not remember exact name) which replaces
"\\n" to "\n" which was working perfect for what i wanted ...
that should be settable in option though (if ever implemented)

You can send me your patch if you want. See the How to contribute page. Just add an option or something like.

An other solution is to send as the same messages several lines sent in less than X seconds.
For example, if the time limit is 0.5s, if two messages are sent in this interval, it will be a single message with two lines.
