That doesn't really answer the question. I use the `\:` syntax often to 
create new lines in abbreviations as you demonstrate. What I need is the 
text output to be `\n`. I need to somehow escape the `\n` such that when 
executed it doesn't generate a new line and strip out the `\n' string 
literal.
