No, of course putting a multi-line string inside a block does not
solve anything. What i meant for you to do is to declare the string
outside the block or as a module level Constant. i typically declare
all multi-line strings (ig for dialog prompts etc..) right after my
globals at the top of my modules or within an imported module like...

from thisModuleConstants import *
