The attached patch reverts printing the parameter parser's warning message
"Warning: Quoted string contains newline for token <token>"
from bold to normal font.
Using escape sequences to highlight warnings during the parameter file
parsing seems impractical: (1) the specific warning about a newline
character in a quoted string indicates a problem which in most cases
isn't one. I've seen many users using this "feature" in their parfiles
to make them more readable. (2) There is a flesh parameter
Cactus::highlight_warning_messages by which the user can choose whether
warning messages should be highlighted or not. The parameter parser
disregards this parameter which may suggest a bug to the user.
