I would like to have a multiline label on an edge appearing in a TikZ
path. I guessed at the following syntax:</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite> \begin{tikzpicture}[shorten
>=1pt,on grid,auto,initial text=]<br>
\node[state] (2) {$q_2$};<br>
\path[->]<br>
(2) edge [loop right] node
{$0,\varepsilon\to0\\ 1,\varepsilon\to1$} ();</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite> \end{tikzpicture}<br>
hoping that the labels $0,\varepsilon\to0$ and $1,\varepsilon\to1$
would appear as separate labeling lines on the loop,<br>
but it didn't work; it was as if the \\ was not there.</blockquote>

<div>Try putting it in an array environment.</div>

<div>P.S. It would help to post complete, runnable minimal examples
(with \begin{document}\end{document} etc. which also show which
tikz libraries you are loading.</div>
