Perhaps i didn't understand exactly the problem, but let me try:
Multiple lines work fine in my reply templates, although for more
control over the matched parts of regexps i usually use
%SETPATTREGEXP, %REGEXPBLINDMATCH and %SUBPATT. If i wanted to place
all text _excluding_ the beginning '#' and the ending '~' in a reply,
my reply template would contain
%SETPATTREGEXP='(?s)#(.*)~'%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%text'%SUBPATT='1'
If i would have it quoted, it would be
%QUOTES="%SETPATTREGEXP='(?s)#(.*)~'%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%text'%SUBPATT='1'"
If i misunderstood you, you could provide some more details
