During the course of converting programs designed for other micros to run
on my C64, I occasionally encounter lines in BASIC that simply cannot be
split into smaller lines (e.g., ON X GOTO 1200,1300,1400,1500 etc, for some
80+ characters).  While I can sometimes squeeze these in by using the BASIC
abbreviations, this doesn't always solve the problem.

Is there a way to create lines greater than 80 characters?  As far as I can
tell, the *Programmer's Reference Manual* says no.  Anyone know better?

Chris
