I usually have some #+LaTeX_HEADER: entries in my org-mode files where
some of them are macros. These lines can be rather long so I have to
type in #+LaTeX_HEADER: multiple times for breaking the line to a decent
level.
Is there a way of breaking a line when it is export options (or a
regular comment in org-mode)?

Wouldn't it be better to put the macros in a separate file (say
mymacros.sty) and use
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{mymacros}
? Less clutter in the org file and if the macros are more generally useful,
you can make it available, say by moving it to your personal texmf
directory (mine is at ~/.texmf-var/tex/latex but ymmv) and running texhash.

Well, I would like it to be in one file. If I, for instance, want to
have long author list, it is not possible to do without having all the
names on one line.
I through maybe that there was a newline symbol, like in python or matlab.

In that case, you might want to use a template mechanism to enter the
#+LATEX_HEADER with a minimum of pain. Org comes with an "easy template"
system of its own:
(info "(org) Easy templates")
but I had some trouble with the customization as detailed in another
posting. Note by the way that you can use a string as a key: you are not
limited to a single character. There are other abbrev/template systems also
if you find you don't like the org one.

No. But maybe you could do
#+LATEX_HEADER: \input{pre}
#+BEGIN_SRC LATEX :tangle pre.tex
\usepackage{mypackage}
#+END_SRC
Or you could make a new Org-Latex, see the variable org-latex-classes
if you have the same problem often.
Some people entertained the idea of writing sty and/or cls files
recently on this list. If you use the same macros all over perhaps
you should pack them as a sty or the very least as an external tex
file, I guess.
Alternatively, use the function string-rectangle. In the following
example, place your mark at the first `|', click C-Space, move to the
second `|' click C-x r t LATEX_HEADER RET.
|\usepackage{pac1}
\usepackage{pac1}
|\usepackage{pac1}.
Hope it helps.

This is the kind of tedious nonsense up with which I will not put

Okay, just thought that there might be a symbol for that. That could
have been nice.
But thanks for the suggestions.
