Rob Hudson wondered: <<I've seen a few tech manuals that show
linefeed symbols in code samples to let the user know that the line
is "wrapped" in the example. How can I accomplish this with a style
in Word?>>

If you mean that you want to type the backwards-P (pilcrow) used to
mark ends of paragraphs, it's probably simplest to type it yourself.

and Macintosh symbols, please see the list of files available for
