Is there a way to lay out a statement across multiple lines? (e.g. like using the \ character at the end of a line in C)?
I do all my lowresnx programming on my iPhone and the code is quite hard to read when lines are too long for the screen width & wrapped by the editor.

One trick is to break a line down, and use small variable names...

For example, take this code..
SUB DRAW_BUILDING(X)
TOP = 5 + INT(RND*10)
ROOF = 16 + 2*INT(RND*8)
CELL X, TOP, ROOF
CELL X+1, TOP, ROOF+1
FOR Y = 15 TO TOP+1 STEP -1
STORY = 32 + 2*INT(RND*8)
CELL X, Y, STORY
CELL X+1, Y, STORY+1
NEXT Y
END SUB
REPLACE WITH THESE....
SUB DBLD(X)
CALL DOR(5,1,10,TOP)
CALL DOR(16,2,8,RF)
CELL X,TOP,RF
CELL X+1,TOP,RF+1
TT=TOP+1
FOR Y=15 TO TT STEP -1
CALL DOR(32,2,8,STR)
CELL X,Y,STR
CELL X+1,Y,STR+1
NEXT Y
END SUB
SUB DOR(A,PM,M,R)
I=INT(RND*M)
R=A+I*PM
END SUB

DOR = DO RND

I would prefer horizontal scrolling, but the standard iOS text editor doesn't support it. I agree that automatic line wrapping looks bad, but at the moment this doesn't have priority for me.
