- \* string continuations


Maybe not the prettiest when some indenting should be preserved:

x = "for i=1,3 do\n\*
     \  print 'one'\n\*
      end\n\*
      for i=1,3 do\n\*
     \  print 'two'\n\*
      end"
print(x)


Well, if I understood correctly, this syntax is to have long strings without line breaks.
For what you show, long string syntax might be better adapted...
