Firebug - how can I run multiline scripts or create a new JavaScript file?

Is there a way in Firebug to start a new script file to apply to page? Basically I want to do work like I'd normally do on the Firebug console but be able to to paste in multi-line functions, etc. It doesn't seem like the console is amenable to that.

Down in the lower-right corner of the FireBug UI you should see a red square icon with an up arrow. Use that and stretch it to a size you like.

What about this idea:

Assuming your page can already have script tags that reference jQuery and a 'Script Include' jQuery plugin, then in the Console you could arbitrarily do:

$.include('http://example.com/scripts/some_script.js');

maybe not within firebug, but you could try some techniques similar to the jQuery bookmarklet.
