How hard would it be to add support for multi-line .ASCII string literals?
I was trying to write a quine in Pep/9 assembly since I thought it would be an interesting/clever assignment to give students to make them think about instructions vs data. However, being forced to use "\n" within the string literals makes it MUCH harder to write such a program. On the other hand, I believe there would be a nice short/clean quine if I could write:
