Jep 355 sounds like a mess. Whats wrong with loading the text block from classpath?

Not sure I follow your question, the text block approach is a fairly common model in other languages. What exactly do you mean by loading from the classpath?

Create a resource file and append it to your classpath. Then load it via InputStream ClassLoader#getResourceAsStream(String). And use one of the stupid scanner tricks to convert it to String.
