Default Bent arrow at end of line

OK, with poems and song lyrics it's quite all right to use line breaks. :-)

Thank you for the link. It was very helpful. The reason I need line
breaks
is for variable length lines like in poems and song lyrics.

By the way, if your goal is to make text lines shorter in some
paragraphs,
right (and/or left) indents are usually a better way than line breaks.

The right angle arrow indicates a line break. To insert such a break,
press Shift+Enter.

On documents that I have copied I see a little right angle arrow. How
do
I
get this mark instead of a paragraph mark every time hit enter. I
understand
that the paragraph mark contains style info for that paragraph and you
only
want one at the end of the paragraph?
