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)
