Yes; you can use the line continuation character "\" between words, so long
as it is in a logical place (i.e. not in the middle of a quoted string, or a
parenthesized chunk of calculations). Generally it's used when concatenating
things with "&", like:

  put (the long id of field 1) && "="  & \
    (the text of field 1)

Check out "backslash" in the Transcript Dictionary for more info.
