Replace it with:  Alt-13, Alt-10, Alt-13, Alt-10.  That'll create two CR/LF 
pairs.  You may have to exit and reload the file before the CR/LF's become 
new lines, instead of just the symbols.  I haven't tried this, but it should 
work...

Not that I know of.  It would be nice...  Telix uses ^M and ^J for CR and LF. 
And ^[ for Esc, ^A for Ctrl-A, etc...  I prefer that method.
