The same thing applies for { text... } and [ text... ], and it also
works when the text is split across multiple lines:
{ this
will
work
too }

Hi,
Nice one!
I think most people (including me) who want to execute text with spaces and
don't want to select a line put the text into parentheses or brackets () [] {}.
In case you don't know, you can double click one of the parentheses to select
everything that it encloses. You can then middle click the selection like usual.
Some people put commands they use more often into scratch files like that.

P.S: in case you're reading this inside acme, you can test it:
(echo Have a nice day)
IT will
