breaking long lines breakthru

I have discovered how to not put spaces in lines sent to the shell like
a:
        echo x\
y
which will normally print "a b". You just do
a:
        echo x$(\
        )y

The Makefile also stays tidy.  This is such a hot discovery that I
"demand" you put something like it into the manual!
