This looks somehow funny, this really works well in Python?

... just wondering how they distinguish empty strings "" from this
start sign of a multiline string ...

... but maybe Pyhton will allow this only on start of line and then
some further restriction... .

(Lua has not such stringent "start of line" coding conditions as
Python, generally it allows much more flexible coding... ).
