697.0. "MSL - Continuation of Quoted Strings" by COOKIE::KITTELL (Richard - Architected Info Mgmt) Thu Feb 07 1991 18:12

For the TEXT and DEFAULT and the DEPENDS ON clauses, I sometimes have a 
fairly long string to put inside quotes.

	DEPENDS ON = "Flavor IN SET (Raspberry, Pumpernickle, Bananna,
                                     Rocky Road)"

Can quoted strings be broken across lines like that?

697.1Yes! Multiple lines.CHRISB::BRIENENDECmcc Bridge|Station Management.Fri Feb 08 1991 09:0711
Yes, the strings can be broken across lines (we do this OFTEN with Bridge and
Station entities).

Example:

            DEPENDS ON = "Hardware Type IN SET ( DEBET LAN Bridge 150,
                                                 DEBAM LAN Bridge 200,
                                                 DEWGB Work Group Bridge,
                                                 DEFEB DECbridge 500 )",
