small question about LUA and text blocks

[iWitch]

Have LUA something similar to PHP's :

$s = <<<LetterEndThis is the 1st line of string.This is the 2nd line of string.This is the 3th line of string.LetterEnd; 

when the variable equals a block of text without interpretation

Yes, in lua you could use [[ and ]] to define text variables without interpretation:

 

local s=[[some text:

Line one

"Line two"

'Line three'

--comment would be part of the text too

Last line]]
