Hello,

The new exporter does not properly parse \n characters in macro definitions.
In the old exporter the following:
#+MACRO: test hello\ngoodbye
{{{test}}}
exports to ASCII as:
hello
goodbye
In the new exporter (e-ascii) it exports as:
hello\ngoodbye
I've also reproduced this using e-pdf and e-texinfo.
Indeed. There is no support anymore for that feature. Macros are
a simple tool for simple tasks. Anything more complicated would overlap
with Babel functionalities. There's no point in providing that.
As a side note, the old exporter is wrong anyway, since only line breaks
should ensure to keep a real line break in the output.
Also, a macro can be replaced with a more complicated Babel call, if
needed.
