If you mean, do I think
put \
"This is part of" &CR& \
"A multi-line string which" &CR& \
"I find much less readable." into temp
is less preferable than
put {{
That's better!
A really readable and short
version that I can deal with.
}} into temp
then, Yes - absolutely.
To be honest, I don't much care whether it's triple-quote (not my
favourite), or {{...}}, or <<LABEL, or <<~Label, or ..... Just some way
to avoid the ..." &CR&\
And definitely a bonus to have a way to keep indentation nice (as in
Ruby's squiggly heredoc).

So you don't like &CR& ?
Always make me think of K&R - and brings me out in a cold sweat :-)

While we (i.e. you) are thinking about string delimiters, could we PLEASE
have some decent way to do multi-line strings.
Yes, please.
Whether it's like Python's triple-quote
No, please.
