title: Breaking strings into different lines in ant build.xml files
body: <p>I'd like to know how to shorten lines containing long string literals in my ant build.xml file.  For example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;target name="foo"
          description="I sure do have a lot to say.  Blah Blah.  This is getting awfully wide, etc."
          depends="A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,...,ZZ"&gt;
    ...
  &lt;/target&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Obviously, I could shorten the depends attribute value by creating a tree of dependencies, but that wouldn't work in other cases, such as the description.  What's the right way to handle this?</p>
