It's a while since I've done this, but I think I have noticed what you are reporting: line continuation only works in a saved script (and I agree that it can be handy to test a few lines with saving and sourcing, particularly when the lines are in the middle of other non-script stuff). I guess that :@" is executing each line as a command, whereas in a script there is a prior step to join continued lines. I quite like Bram's unorthodox choice of putting the backslash continuation on the start of the next line, but that means the command parser can't tell if a command is complete (without attempting to read another line). This command won't work: :echo 'Hello<PressEnterHere>\World' So I think you are stuck with line continuation not working in copied commands.
