Is there any way to split a long line?

I tried "\" at the end of the line but that wasn't it.
If you use the latest version (currently 1.5-beta2, but hopefully 1.5
final within the week), then you can split long lines like this
without any need for \ at the end or anything like that. Multi-line
directive calls and string literal definitions (e.g. #set( $foo =
'hello
there' ) ) are new features in Velocity 1.5.
An alternative to using many arguments would be to use a single argument
that is a bean containing all the arguments. Is it possible in VTL to
create a new object in order to assign it's properties prior to a macro
call? Or perhaps create an object literal like in JavaScript?
e.g.
#macro (myMacro params)
Hi $params.Name
#end
#myMacro({name: 'Steve'})
in the 1.5 family, you can now also define map literals.
#myMacro( { 'name' : 'Steve' , 'age' : 27 } )
Cheers,
Steve.
