I want to inset a return and new line in a string that will latter become my legend text

I'm using this scrip to build my legend:
(1)loop(ii,1,count){
(2) %A=legend.text$;
(3) %Z=ini.master.legendPlot$(ii)$;
(4) if(ii==1)
(5) legend.text$="\L(1) %Z";
(6) else
(7) legend.text$="%A\L($(ii)) %Z";
(8)}

I try inserting <\r\n> in lines 5 and 7, but then the legend displays the letters rn istead of inserting a new line.

LabTalk is not C, so strings are ok to be multiline, so you can simply


 
(5)legend.text$="\L(1) %Z
";

in other words, strings in labtalk will be treated as is, so you can just put tab and newline directly.
