New Paragraph in multi-line field?

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to figure out how to signal Quick to put in a line break in a
multi-line scrolling field. We're using PH819c4 on an HP3000 with an
Image dataset that has a 600 byte field that is defined in Quick as

field INCIDENT-TEXT for 10,60

It works well for straight text, but sometimes the user will need to
'format' the text in the field by putting in a line break. For example:

Step 1.  This is a line of text.
Step 2. This is another line.

I consulted the PowerHouse rules book, and it seems to indicate (in the
section titled 'Text Edit Commands' on page 248) that a New Paragraph
command can be used. But, it doesn't indicate what the user types to
accomplish this.

Can anyone enlighten me?
Thanks!
