Thanks for your explanation. > It would be quite a bit of code change to change this behavior. Would it be generally acceptable to change the parser in the way that also function parameters which would like not to pass several logical lines in a single variable with multi-line content will be supported? Does the current software provide a function library for corresponding parsing of text components?
