enters in java

[c\(h\)at]

I want to make a message allert in Java.
That's no problem for me.
But the text is pretty long, and I don't know how to make enters in Java.
So, how can I make an enter or a empty line in Java?

If you are using Strings to display the message the thing you are
looking for is the newline character in java it is: '\n', you could do
something like:
"dear user,\nyou have just crashed the program, thank you"
the output of this would be like:

dear user,
you have just crashed the program, thank you

You need to use an escape character. if you have something like:
String s = new String("This is a \n short string or something.");
The output is:
This is a
short string or something.
the escape character \n produces a newline.

In addition to the other responses, you can also produce an empty line
to the Console using the following code:

System.out.prin tln();
