Would be fine to have a tool to make a multiline text:

VA could open text editor (Scintilla?) to write some text:
This editor could also support highlighting, so there could be switch for specific language (like in NotePad++).
After I write some text to it and press enter (or OK button):
from input (language set to SQL):
SELECT "Column1", "Column2"
FROM "TestTable"
WHERE "Column1" <> "Column2"

I like to get output (current language specific - example for C++):
"SELECT \\"Column1\\", \\"Column2\\""
"FROM \\"TestTable\\""
"WHERE \\"Column1\\" <> \\"Column2\\""


How about it?

If you have already written the block of text, then you can use an IDE macro to do the conversion. I worked out and posted a sample macro here, for converting the text into a VB string, but it should be easy enough to update:

Unfortunately this won't work in VS2012, since VS2012 no longer offers IDE macros.
