Multi-line text

A nice feature to have would be multi-line text.
For example, put '\n' at the end of a line to go to the beginning of the next line, which would start at the x-coordinate of the actor.

This would be incredibly useful for things such as instructions and game dialog.
:idea:

Sorry, perhaps I should clarify:
what I meant by, "Start the next line at the x-coordinate of the actor"
was that every time a line of text has a "\n" (newline character), a new row of text would start at that point.
The x-coordinate (or horizontal position) in the room (or world) would be the leftmost position of the next row of text. An actor (or object) is the physical representation of an animation (or sprite), text, etc.

I hope this is all of the information you need...
