A checkbox in the text dialog, to enable multiline, may do.
How would input be returned? Escaped line feeds in a string, returned in a simple variable? A list? Latter probably preferable, but should that be an implied characteristic?

So the variable in your example will contain "kgsuds" ?

Action Input Dialog should already allow entering multiple lines of text by default (except when the keyboard does not show the enter key for some reason).

Strange, all keyboards I've tried end input when pressing Return: Swype, Hacker's keyboard, Terminal IDE keyboard, external bluetooth keyboard. Also, Ctrl-J or Ctrl-M are ineffective.

That's strange. Is there an enter key when long-pressing the 'Listo' key?
Enter is displayed and seems to work on Google Keyboard, Swift and Hackers Keyboard on my device (Nexus 5X, Android 6). What's the Android versions you are using?

Sorry, my bad. I've fixed this a few weeks ago for version 1.31 (available in the EAP forum) but could not remember :oops:

That is, instead of being an option to put text , there are two .

One line
multiline

in some cases I need to be just one line.
