Wouldn't it be better to write that as

"Delete a breakpoint.\n\n"
"The breakpoint to delete must be specified by its breakpoint number.\n"
"Deleted breakpoints are gone completely. If instead you want to\n"
"temporarily disable a breakpoint, use \"disable\".\n"

(ie let the pre-processor's string concatenation do our long strings,
rather than the \ line joining)
