insert new line

Hi all -

I can't find a reference to how to insert a new line with brightscript. Currently, I'm swapping "\n" with a "|" character, but a new line is really what I want. Example:

channel.description = strReplace2(item.titleBrief, "\n", " | ")

and I want:

channel.description = strReplace2(item.titleBrief, "\n", " [new line] ")

Thanks!
