Indicating Code Sample Line Breaks

Neil,

Are the code lines individually in table cells, or are all of the lines
really in a single table cell?  Must be a pain if it's only one large
cell...

I presume each line is a separate paragraph.  If not I have no idea how
to automate this at all.

If these are not numbered, you could include an autonumber on the RIGHT
side that displays a character from the symbol or wingding families
(using a defined character format tag) to illustrate the carriage return
symbol, such as 0xBF in the Symbol font.  Check in your 'character map'
for an appropriate choice.

You can set the Left indent at some value greater than the First line
indent so the continuation is indented as desired.
