Just a clarification: you cannot break the *string* argument but
newlines in other places are fine:
(info
"(org) The Spreadsheet")
works fine, but
(info
"(org) The
Spreadsheet")
does not: the second string is not the same as the first one, since it
includes a newline. OTOH, you can escape the newline:
(info
"(org) The \
Spreadsheet")
works fine.
The point is that all of this follows from the properties of
strings. Just go to the *scratch* buffer and evaluate some
expressions:
(string-equal "a b" "a \
b")
t
(string-equal "a b" "a
b")
nil
