## A merges lines while preserving the line break for html/LaTeX

### Description

This function helps you to do a multiline table header in both html and in LaTeX. In html this isn't that tricky, you just use the <br /> command but in LaTeX I often find myself writing vbox/hbox stuff and therefore I've created this simple helper function

### Usage

    txtMergeLines(..., html = 5)

### Arguments

`...` | The lines that you want to be joined
`html` | If HTML compatible output should be used. If `FALSE` it outputs LaTeX formatting. Note if you set this to 5 then the html5 version of br will be used: `<br>` otherwise it uses the `<br />` that is compatible with the xhtml-formatting.

### Value

string

### See Also

Other text formatters: `txtPval`, `txtRound`

### Examples

    txtMergeLines("hello", "world")
    txtMergeLines("hello", "world", html=FALSE)
    txtMergeLines("hello", "world", list("A list", "is OK"))
