from ZPublisher.Converters:

>def field2lines(v):
>    if type(v) in (ListType, TupleType):
>        result=[]
>        for item in v:
>            result.append(str(item))
>        return result
>    return field2text(v).split('\n')

Last line of function should be:

>    return field2text(v).splitlines()

Reason: 

>>> s = ''
>>> s.split('\n')
 ['']
>>> s.splitlines()
 []

Then you could, for example, write ZPT:

    tal:condition="object/lines_property"
