Windows 7 Pro x64 SP1

Greetings!

Some X-functions require many parameters and I want to improve the code readability by separating the parameter list into several lines.
How do we achieve this in the current LT syntax?
A nice example is: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/visual-basic/programming-guide/program-structure/how-to-break-and-combine-statements-in-code

So far I have found https://www.originlab.com/doc/LabTalk/guide/Extending-a-stmt-over-Multiple-Lines, but it is related to macros.

Thank you.

Labtalk has no line break concept, so you can put your code into as many lines as you want, as only the ";" will terminate it, like

ty "this
is a test
of multiple
lines";
