Just a clarification: you cannot break the *string* argument but
newlines in other places are fine:

      (info
         "(org) The Spreadsheet")

works fine, but

      (info
         "(org) The 
Spreadsheet")

does not: the second string is not the same as the first one, since it
includes a newline. OTOH, you can escape the newline:

      (info
         "(org) The \
Spreadsheet")

works fine.

The point is that all of this follows from the properties of
strings. Just go to the *scratch* buffer and evaluate some
expressions:

(string-equal "a b" "a \
b")
t

(string-equal "a b" "a 
b")
nil
