Hi everyone,

I am having some trouble writing capture templates with newlines from
the customise buffer. From all the examples I see in the manual and
Worg, it seems simply putting \n within the template string should
work. But entering a "\n" in the template escapes the "\n" when saving
to file and the saved template ends up looking like this,

"** %^{prompt|TODO|WInP} %? %^G\\n%^t"

Entering a newline pressing [RET] works. But then in my init.el it is
stored as a carriage return rather than "\n", making it ugly. Is there
a way to enter newlines in the customise buffer which is saved as
"\n"?

Thanks for any thoughts.
