Split "Custom" text on only newlines [suggestion]

[izaakm]

My goal may be different than the intended use. I'd like to practice typing code, and it would be convenient to be able to paste code directly into the custom text. Splitting on all white space works but produces some odd character combinations. Having the option to split only on newlines would, I think, suffice for what I'm trying to do.

Could you paste here the sample code you're trying to practice on?

Here's an example, pretty trivial:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

set -e

todofile="${TODOFILE:-${XDG_DATA_HOME}/todo/todo.md}"
tododir="$(dirname $todofile)"

fetch() {
    if [[ -d $tododir ]] ; then
        echo "[INFO] FETCH"
        git -C "$tododir" fetch || echo "[WARNING] fetch FAILED"
    fi
}

pull() {
    if [[ -d $tododir ]] ; then
        echo "[INFO] PULL"
        git -C "$tododir" pull --rebase
    fi
}

push() {
    if [[ -d $tododir ]] ; then
        echo "[INFO] PUSH"
        git -C "$tododir" push
    fi
}

This should be sufficient to demonstrate the 'problem' I'm having. Using this, you will end up with instances where you just end up practicing typing lots of open/close brackets, but I'd like to get more realistic practice by typing whole lines.
