	Help! I am a beginner, and need help on
	how I can format multiple lines of text.

	I am trying to create a project report which is about 7 pages
	of text in a file. I am aware of

	(This is how a string is specified) show

	But what do I do when I have paragraphs and pages of text?
	How do I break up a paragraph into lines? Am I missing
	something? Is there a reference which I can pursue?
	thanks in advance.
