<p>To prevent Robot Framework from parsing data according to these rules,
a backslash can be used:</p>
<ul class="simple">
-<li>Before leading spaces, for example <span class="code">\ some
text</span></li>
-<li>Between consecutive spaces, for example <span class="code">text \ \
more text</span></li>
-<li>After trailing spaces, for example <span class="code">some text \
\</span></li>
-<li>With <span class="code">n</span> to create a newline, for example
<span class="code">first line\n2nd line</span></li>
-<li>With <span class="code">t</span> to create a tab character, for
example <span class="code">text\tmore text</span></li>
-<li>With <span class="code">r</span> to create a carriage return, for
example <span class="code">text\rmore text</span></li>
+<li>Before leading spaces, for example <span class="code">\ some
text</span>.</li>
+<li>Between consecutive spaces, for example <span class="code">text \ \
more text</span>.</li>
+<li>After trailing spaces, for example <span class="code">some text \
\</span>.</li>
+<li>As <span class="code">\n</span> to create a newline, for example <span
class="code">first line\n2nd line</span>.</li>
+<li>As <span class="code">\t</span> to create a tab character, for example
<span class="code">text\tmore text</span>.</li>
+<li>As <span class="code">\r</span> to create a carriage return, for
example <span class="code">text\rmore text</span>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Another, and often clearer, possibility for representing leading,
trailing, or consecutive spaces is using <a class="reference internal"
href="#space-and-empty-variables">built-in variable</a>
<span class="var">${SPACE}</span>. The <a class="reference internal"
href="#extended-variable-syntax">extended variable syntax</a> even allows
syntax
like <span class="var">${SPACE * 8}</span> which makes handling
consecutive spaces very simple.</p>
+<div class="note">
+<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
+<p class="last">Possible unescaped whitespace character after the <span
class="code">\n</span> is
+ignored to allow wrapping long lines containing newlines. This
+means that <span class="code">two lines\nhere</span> and <span
class="code">two lines\n here</span>
+are equivalent. An exception to this rule is that the whitespace
+character is not ignored inside the <a class="reference internal"
href="#extended-variable-syntax">extended variable syntax</a>.</p>
