if you want to know if newlines are allowed in string literals in Common Lisp, the answer it yes, they are, and they need no special treatment.

Newlines in a string literal won't break that string into two strings, as you probably already know. I think what you meant to ask was if there is a way to break a string into more than one line and have it interpreted as if it were all on one line (insert non-literal newlines, in other words). You can do this with FORMAT strings.
