There are two ways of spanning a long line on several ones:

- Once a binary operator is read, its second operand can start on another 
line.

This is Jean-Yves' example.

- A string can be written in several parts with new lines between.

String = "This " "is " "actually "
         "only " "one " "string " "in " "the " "compiled " "code!"
