I was so annoyed by this limitation I fixed it in this commit:

https://git.skoll.ca/Skollsoft-Public/Remind/commit/7b9b6ebc969dda77ef6991ad80e9091fa301e0d2

Support for preserving newlines (%_) by calendar back-ends is not guaranteed.
Currently, rem2pdf supports it (if you invoke Remind with -pp or -ppp) and
TkRemind supports it.  rem2html currently does not, but I'll fix that.
rem2ps does not and I will not fix that because rem2ps is deprecated---use
rem2pdf instead.

Also, the "simple" modes like "remind -s" or "remind -n" will convert
the newlines to spaces.

Regards,

Dianne.
