For example.
Code:
alias sv_hook_gamestart_all "say ^7Welcome.; say ^7All matches on this server except CTS have a 2 minute warm up phase.; say ^7To begin the match, ready up (default key: ^1F4^7).;";
While this is more legible, it only causes the server to print a welcoming message when server.cfg is executed.
Code:
alias sv_hook_gamestart_all "\
say ^7Welcome.; \
say ^7All matches on this server except CTS have a 2 minute warm up phase."; \
say ^7To begin the match, ready up (default key: ^1F4^7).;";
You can't have new lines in aliases, but what you could do is throw those into a separate config file, which you then execute from the alias:
alias sv_hook_gamestart_all "exec welcome.cfg"
The contents of welcome.cfg (which would of course go in data) would look something like this:
Code:
say ^7Welcome.
say ^7All matches on this server except CTS have a 2 minute warm up phase.
say ^7To begin the match, ready up (default key: ^1F4^7).

What's the clever work around for

//need to shuffle otherwise will show the first listed maps above.
g_maplist_shufflenow
where each map is ideally on its own line for legibility. (It's already in its own file).

EDIT: not sure why but Mario's reply didn't show up at first.
Well at least its in C.
I guess if you have an idea of how you want them organized, you could split them into addtolist calls:
Code:
g_maplist "a few unsorted maps"
alias addmaps "addtolist g_maplist ${* ?}"
addmaps "solarium darkzone runningman solarium silentsiege stormkeep warfare xoylent"
addmaps "opium_v4 downer_final_r1"
I wanted them organized alphabetically.
On their own lines.
Can't I just suggest you people to tinker with the parser a bit?
I'd love a more powerful parser, but I can't really justify that being a high priority. How about write your own config pre-processor (in say Python or Perl) that produces Xonotic's cfg from whatever better syntax you'd like to use?
