Take a look on this code:

      (this ~= new HtmlPanel()).load(
        "<HTML><H1 padding=3px back-color='edit dialog'>H1:This is <I>HTML
text</I> loaded into <B>HTMLPanel</B> - simple non scrollable HTML
container.</H1>"
          "<P>Image:<IMG src='c:/test.png'/> </P>"
          "<P><CODE>code example;</CODE></P>"
          "<P>And here goes the Table:</P>"
          "<TABLE cellspacing=10px cellpadding=10px padding=10px
border-width=1px border-style=solid border-color=dialog-shadow >"
            "<TR>"
              "<TD width=30%>one: <INPUT type=text value='hello world'
width=100px /></TD>"
                   "<TD>two</TD><TD width=40 back-color='dialog-light
scrollbar' border='1px solid dialog-shadow'>1</TD>"
            "</TR>"
            "<TR>"
              "<TD border='1px solid dialog-shadow'>three
three</TD><TD>four</TD><TD back-color='dialog-light scrollbar' border='1px
solid dialog-shadow'>2</TD>"
            "</TR>"
            "<TR>"
              "<TD colspan=2 back-color='dialog-light
dialog-shadow'>colspan=2</TD><TD back-color='dialog-light dialog-light
scrollbar dialog-shadow'>3</TD>"
            "</TR>"
          "</TABLE>"
          "<P>Hyperlink test: <A href='http://terrainformatica.com'>Terra
Informatica</A></P>"
        "</HTML>");

Ugly, isn't it ?

It would be just nice if it will be possible to say

this ~= new (HtmlPanel()).load(
<+
my multiline string
constant
+> );

PHP does have something like this. But D is not PHP and PHP is not D.

this is valid:
###########################
void main()
{
	printf("hello there
	and over there
	and to the left\n");
}
##################
produces
##################
hello there
	and over there
	and to the left

While we're on this subject, it would be nice to that r" be exactly what is suppose to be.  For example,

char[] str;
str = r"
many
many
lines
to
add
and more

and even more

and end it.";

This would be nice.  Python has the """ which ends with """ and anything in between is a string.  But, r" should be
