proposal: introducing a new raw string literal

go-proposal.md

Background

It came to me when I was writing something like this:

package main
import "fmt"

func main() {
    fmt.Println(`----------------
Demo Program
----------------
 - foo
 - bar
----------------`);  
}

which prints:

----------------
Demo Program
----------------
 - foo
 - bar
----------------

but, why not make it like this one?

    fmt.Println(```
----------------
Demo Program
----------------
 - foo
 - bar
----------------```);  

or this one?

    disptext := ```
----------------
Demo Program
----------------
 - foo
 - bar
----------------```
    fmt.Println(disptext)

Proposal

To introduce a new literal for raw string, where triple backquote is used to surround a raw string area, whose first linebreak is ignored:

    ```
this is a raw string
lol```

This is equivalent to:

    `this is a raw string
lol`

or simply:

    "this is a raw string\nlol"

The only difference between the new literal and the old 'backquote-raw string-backquote' literal is that, the new literal stripped out the first linebreak from the raw string, making it easier to write multiline text, just as the example provided in section "Background".
