In Inform 7:

say line break;

Or as part of a text:

say "Line one.[line break]Line two."

I’d recommend bookmarking the documentation. This version (courtesy of Zed Lopez), in comparison to the one in the IDE, has the option to be viewed as one full webpage, meaning you can search through it using your browser’s search functionality.

For example, the first instance of line break gives you a (convoluted) way to make line breaks[1], while the fourth instance leads you to §5.8 Line breaks and paragraph breaks which includes the [line break] syntax Daniel provided.

  1. Texts which end with sentence-ending punctuation - full stop, question mark, exclamation mark - are printed with a line break after them. ↩︎
