line continuation character ?

Don Pomplun

I don't find any reference to a "line continuation character" in Spin.. Is there?

TIA

I would just like to state that a line continuation character would be awesome.

not too long ago, someone found that if you put a carriage return inside of multiline comment {
} then it works.

Who says you have to have knowledge to use it?

I've killed a fly with my bare mind.

Right, I discovered this; works great.

   a := ((c & 1) << 31) + ((c & 4) << 19) +     {
}        ((c & 8) << 3) + ((c & 1024) >> 5)

Another trick to use is whenever you *intend* to use
the >= operator (which is *not* greater than or equals),
instead type > = (note the space). This way you can
scan your code and if any ">=" exist, you know you
messed up and probably meant => instead (the Spin
greater or equals). Ditto for <=; use < = instead.

Thanks alot guys - it will make my overly complicated if-conditions look easier to read.
