You are right. You have to add "\n" after the word where you want the
line wrapping. (Without the "") You have to add this in the text file
where your cookies are stored. Don't forget that TB! will interpret
*every* single line of that file as an independent cookie, therefore
if you have blank lines in it - blank lines will also be inserted
occasionally as a cookie.
OTOH you can wrap the Cookies manually by pressing Alt+L in the
editor. Which
