in reply to Net::IRC print multiple lines from $self->privmsg

IRC is a line oriented protocol, so I really doubt that there is a way to put multiple lines into one line. Also, there are (various) length limits on a single line to prevent flooding. So I guess you're out of luck, unless your program splits up a single line into multiple lines before sending the line.

    As I recall there might be a way by putting a semi-colon (Update: I think I meant a colon) and then your string at the end of the command but it has been a long time since I've read the RFC and I do recall that commands are terminated by the '\n' character. Let us know if you do figure it out though. :^)
