Name

return — “\r”

Description

Macintosh line break character. There does not seem to be any conflict with the keyword return (Section 8.1). The only place where a conflict could occur is when return is the first word of a line. The rule in that situation seems to be that if return is followed by an operator, it can’t be the keyword, so it must be this property.

Example

"This is a line." & return & "This is another line."
