I tried the following commands:



:abb sm Summary:n
:abb sm Summary:\n


but it didn't work, nothing escaped, I ended up with the long form instead of a break.



Is there a way to do that from ex mode? Is it something with one of those ^M characters? I can't remember how to do that.

          Use <cr> instead of n:



          iabbrev sm Summary<cr>


          You use generally use key notation in these cases, something you can find out more about by entering :h key-notation.

                    One-line joke

                    A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
