Simple question

Yesterday I asked some doozies…

So here’s an easy one.

I have a bunch of text like this:

variable = "hey how are you

I am fine

Great!

";

I would rather not put manual carriage returns in there. Is there any way that flash can honor these carriage returns literally without choking on the code?

I know this is simple - but I’ve been looking around and I know someone will know right away.
