You can of course shift the strings all the way to the left (which is ugly)
Is it though? I think it looks fine, personally, if you place the initial
backtick on the next line after the equal sign, like this:
const MultiLine =
`Sentence one.
Another sentence.
A third sentence.
A fourth sentence.
A fifth sentence.`;
procedure foo
procedure bar
const MultiLine1 =
`Sentence one.
Another sentence.
A third sentence.
A fourth sentence.
A fifth sentence.`;
MultiLine2 = `Sentence one.
Another sentence.
A third sentence.
A fourth sentence.
A fifth sentence.`;
MultiLine3 = `Sentence one.
Another sentence.
A third sentence.
A fourth sentence.
A fifth sentence.`;
begin
writeln("MultiLine1= '",MultiLine1,"'");
writeln("MultiLine2= '",MultiLine2,"'");
end;
begin
bar;
end;
end;
?
just asking... can't test... the private procedure is specifically to exhibit
various formats and to query what the output would be... intended output in this
case is
'Sentence one.
Another sentence.
A third sentence.
A fourth sentence.
A fifth sentence.
In general though I think that using indentation as an actual "argument" against
this is very strange (which I know you were not doing, to be clear.)
one person's PrettyPrint format is another's ugly-as-sin ;)
