Question: I am trying to store the state of a audio plugin to a ProjectStateContext directly. I'm running into an issue trying to write a large text chunk to the context. Any pointers? Do I need to break it up somehow?

    cfg_encode_textblock is probably a good idea, unless you need newline encoding preserved, in which case you'd probably be better of base64 encoding it

    The cfg_encode_binary method means I don't have to fuss about text encoding at all! Thank you!

    If it is text and you don't need CRLF preserved, cfg_encode_textblock is nicer for the user who might be reading the project file... :)

    ah I forgot, if you need CRLF preserved, can use cfg_encode_textblock2() which will encode line ending info
