input() ignores newlines, truncates after 200 characters

Is there any setting to respect newlines and not truncate for input?

Also you can see the input text overflows over outside the box when the browser is narrow which is not desirable.

Workarounds

Option A — Print first, input separately (cleanest)

prompt = (
('o' * 200)
+ '\n'
+ ('?' * 200)
+ '\n'
+ ('-' * 200)
)

print(prompt)
x = input("> ")
