You could type C-q C-j insted of RETURN when starting a continuation
line.  This will make the two (or more lines) into one entry in
comint's history list.  They will also be sent as a bunch when you
press return.

my comments:

Note that C-j or LineFeed does not to be prefixed by C-q.
This trick is useful in various emacs-mode wich controls
an interactive shell (cmushell-mode, csh-mode, psh-mode...)

Many thanks to Lennart .
