Like the Mac version the Windows version should support the Unicode Line Separator (U+2028) for introducing linebreaks in resources like this:

MY_ERRORDLG_MESSAGE "This works in Mac\u2028but not on Windows!";

As already pointed out in another thread, the only thing that AFAIK does currently work on a cross plattform way is to add a Windows-Style CRLF like this:

MY_ERRORDLG_MESSAGE "This works in Mac
and Windows, but boy is it fugly!";

For the time being, I see only one workaround:
In the .str file, write:

MY_ERRORDLG_MESSAGE     "This works on Mac#as well as on Windows!";

In your code, do e.g.:

String ErrMsg = GeLoadString(MY_ERRORDLG_MESSAGE, "\n");

Actually Cactus Dan posted another workaround, which seems to work on both Mac & Windows:

Use "/u000d" for CR:

MY_ERRORDLG_MESSAGE     "This works on Mac/u000das well as on Windows!";

Please use the vertical bar sign "|" to seperate lines, for example "First Line|Second Line".

AAARRRGH, why is Maxon introducing another *non-standard* way to do this?

Maxon defined that Unicode should be used for signs outside the standard ASCII range. The vertical bar is a standard ASCII char in the 7-Bit range, which should not have such a side effect IMO!

I would consider this behavior as a bug.
