The Ratscript console does not correctly parse \n into a newline when testing code (it takes it as literal), ie, if run in a tester with an assigned input string of "some\nthing", we correctly end up with three tokens

IDENTIFIER "some" at position 1:0
IDENTIFIER "thing" at position 2:0
ENDOFFILE "" at position 2:5

however if entered into the test console, we end up with

IDENTIFIER "some" at position 1:0
IDENTIFIER "thing" at position 1:6
ENDOFFILE "" at position 1:11

and an unexpected character result on \n.

Is this intended behavior? Probably not?

Troubleshoot and resolve.
