Summary
Multi-line statements may be terminated explicitly (usually a ';') or may use a line continuation indicator. Since multi-line strings are rarer than single line statements, a line continuation indicator reduces typing and syntactic errors. Line continuation may be a first character flag, or an indented indicator symbol. (cbb 5/80)
