multi-line *strings*.

Try the following:

Type

 + "
and see:
[1] "l\n"
The newline is truncated, as expected.
So the new feature of multiline strings is great, isn't it?

Re: [R] Warning message if the plot statement breaks into 2 lines

2004-10-29 Thread Mike Meyer
It has all to do with a string going over two lines and hence the line terminator is 
part of the string.   If you close the string on the first line then the command is 
just fine.

At least the newer version of the parser allows for embedded newline characters.
