\n in GPVAL_COMPILE_OPTIONS

[Daniel J S. <dan...@ie...>]

What do the "\n" of the GPVAL_COMPILE_OPTIONS mean?

        GPVAL_COMPILE_OPTIONS = "+READLINE  -LIBREADLINE  +HISTORY  +BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY  +BINARY_DATA  \n+GD_PNG  +GD_JPEG  +GD_TTF  +GD_GIF  +ANIMATION  \n-NOCWDRC  +X11  +X11_POLYGON  +MULTIBYTE  +USE_MOUSE  +HIDDEN3D_QUADTREE  \n+DATASTRINGS  +HISTOGRAMS  +OBJECTS  +STRINGVARS  +MACROS  +IMAGE  \n"

Is this string supposed to be used as part of a string argument somewhere?
