Interesting idea.

I think this puts line breaks at 72 characters. I think the base64
standard limits lines to 76 characters. It should do no harm to remove
all of them, if a single line is really needed.

Will this generate compile errors?
Maybe if this is commented with /* */, the script limit would not apply
and removing line-ends above would not be needed.

And maybe un-comment, if needed.
I'd like to hear how this works out.
