    What is the correct syntax for replacing an entry of text.dat that has multiple lines?

    I tried bbs.replace_text (666, "Oooga" \ "Booga" \ "Boo!\r\n: ")

    But I get a syntax error.

    Thanks!

    Just: bbs.replace_test(666, "Oooga Booga Boo!\r\n:");

    You can insert more "\r\n" pairs in there if you want it to display across multiple lines.
