Description Pedro Villavicencio 2009-01-14 18:02:31 UTC 
this report has been filed here:

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zenity/+bug/317140

"zenity --entry --text="text 1\ntext 2"

When Zenity it shows this entry window, it shows "text 1\ntext 2" literally, It doesn't the line break."

Thanks,

Looks good to commit to me. What uses gtk_label_set_markup() vs. gtk_label_set_text() seems pretty much random, but changing that would be a compatibility break. Adding the strcompress seems pretty safe.
