embed CR in constant

[Mike Bonner]

You could put things together with a urlencoded cr, but then any time you
use the constant you'd have to urldecode it, which is kinda silly when you
can just use a property instead.

constant myConst="test%0D%0Aing"

on mouseup
   put urldecode(myConst)
end mouseup

output:
test
ing
