I’m confused now. The error is coming from the middle of the string after it exceeds the character limit. Can we fix this? If it’s possible to turn on longer than 255 char multiline strings locally that’s going to be a problem for existing code because H+ is global for the unit it appears.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>To be clear: multiline strings are *just* strings in every way.

This should probably be fixed, but it's unrelated to the patch we're discussing here, and not something I'm particularly concerned about at the moment. </div></div></div>
