+  s1 = ''
+    This is an indented multi-line string
+    literal.  An amount of whitespace at
+    the start of each line matching the minimum
+    indentation of all lines in the string
+    literal together will be removed.  Thus,
+    in this case four spaces will be
+    stripped from each line, even though
+      THIS LINE is indented six spaces.
+
+    Also, empty lines don't count in the
+    determination of the indentation level (the
+    previous empty line has indentation 0, but
+    it doesn't matter).
+  '';
+
+  s2 = ''  If the string starts with whitespace
+    followed by a newline, it's stripped, but
+    that's not the case here. Two spaces are
+    stripped because of the "  " at the start. 
+  '';
+
+  s3 = ''
+      This line is indented
+      a bit further.
+        ''; # indentation of last line doesn't count if it's empty
+
+  s4 = ''
+    Anti-quotations, like ${if true then "so" else "not so"}, are
+    also allowed.
+  '';
+
+  s5 = ''
+      The \ is not special here.
+    ' can be followed by any character except another ', e.g. 'x'.
+    Likewise for $, e.g. $$ or $varName.
+    But ' followed by ' is special, as is $ followed by {.
+    If you want them, use anti-quotations: ${"''"}, ${"\${"}.
+  '';
+
+  s6 = ''  
+    Tabs are not interpreted as whitespace (since we can't guess
+    what tab settings are intended), so don't use them.
+ 	This line starts with a space and a tab, so only one
+    space will be stripped from each line.
+  '';
+
+  s7 = ''
+    Also note that if the last line (just before the closing ' ')
+    consists only of whitespace, it's ignored.  But here there is
+    some non-whitespace stuff, so the line isn't removed. '';
+
+  s8 = ''    ${""}
+    This shows a hacky way to preserve an empty line after the start.
+    But there's no reason to do so: you could just repeat the empty
+    line.
+  '';
+
+  s9 = ''
+  ${""}  Similarly you can force an indentation level,
+    in this case to 2 spaces.  This works because the anti-quote
+    is significant (not whitespace).
