I'm coding a sports trivia homebrew game in Lua for the PSP. (not important)
I have made an AppleScript application to make it quicker for me to insert questions. I need to know if it's possible to insert line breaks into the file I'm writing to, so that the code does not get all jumbled up when I open the file later.
