…ns (ramsey) This PR was merged into the 5.2-dev branch. Discussion ---------- [Console] allow multiline responses to console questions | Q | A | ------------- | --- | Branch? | master | Bug fix? | no | New feature? | yes | Deprecations? | no | Tickets | n/a | License | MIT | Doc PR | symfony/symfony-docs#14002 By default, the question helper stops reading user input when it receives a newline character (i.e., when the user hits `ENTER` once). However, with this feature, developers may specify that the response to a question should allow multiline answers by passing `true` to `setMultiline()`. Multiline questions stop reading user input after receiving three newline characters in a row (i.e., the user hits `ENTER` three times) or an end-of-transmission control character (`Ctrl-D` on Unix systems or `Ctrl-Z` on Windows). If a user enters a newline character without input, control is returned to the question class, where the input may be validated to prompt the user again (in the case of a required question), or control may be passed along to the rest of the script.

Never mind. I see what you mean now. The context for your comment didn't show the lines below, so I thought you were talking about the lines above. 😁
None of the other examples on this page show an example name for their command script. If I add this here, should I also add it to the rest of the examples?

ho i did not figure that other have not
but yes i see a lot on code example the path file on top as a comment
it helps understanding in which file the class is and its meaning etc :)
but i do not know if you should update all others :s

I don't disagree, but it's inconsistent with the rest of the examples in this file.

I copied from other examples in the docs, none of which include a return or // ... at the end of the method.
