How to do linebreaks in localization file/multiline strings?

How do I handle multi line text when doing translation?

Imagine this label:


<trans-unit id="0">
<source xml:lang="en">New
line</source>
<target xml:lang="de">Neue
Zeile</target>
</trans-unit>


now I can do:


label = Tr("New"+chr(10)+"line")


that works, but can't I define a multi line string in Brightscript with a line break like this?


REM the code does not work
label = Tr("New
line")
