Greetings.

I'm only asking this question because it seems that Orgmode can do
anything, although I admit that what I'm asking for is probably outside
the normal scope.

I have snips of code in my org files, denoted as ~code~.  I prefer ~code~ to
BEGIN_SRC blocks, because I don't like the big grey text boxes in my
exported documents.  Sometimes my code is very long and includes long lists
of options and arguments and such; for example:

~useradd -U -G wheel -p
'$6$wcMRrkcdGeNHLT5b$password0ISmGZSsILOyV/WJnpassword//'
accountname~

This is all one line.

Then I use C-c C-e t A to "export" this into an ascii buffer, the sole
reason being to remove the tilde characters and provide me an easy
cut-n-paste option.   I end up with this:

useradd -U -G wheel -p <newline>
'$6$wcMRrkcdGeNHLT5b$password0ISmGZSsILOyV/WJnpassword//'
<newline>
accountname <newline>

I would really really really like it if, in addition to the newlines that
are added, a backslash could be added as well.  "Hey, this is a line
enclosed in tildes.  I'm going to add line-breaks.  Each line-break except
for the one at the end needs a backslash"

useradd -U -G wheel -p \<newline>
'$6$wcMRrkcdGeNHLT5b$password0ISmGZSsILOyV/WJnpassword//' \<newline>
accountname <newline>

Is such a thing possible?
