+=head2 NEWLINE ESCAPING
+
+mason_blocks also supports mason-style newline escaping i.e. if the last
+character on a line is a backslash, mason_blocks escapes the line break,
+deleting both the backslash and the following newline character(s). This
+is useful in conjunction with conditionals where you'd prefer the
+conditional content to appear inline within the enclosing content e.g.
+
+ <a href="$permalink::story#comments">\
+ % if ($feedback::count == 0) {
+ No Comments \
+ % }
+ »</a>
+
+would be rendered as:
+
+ <a href="$permalink::story#comments">No Comments »</a>
+
+This is not just a prettiness issue - some browsers treat embedded
+whitespace (including newlines) as significant, even when they
+shouldn't.
