The multi-line format you see in TEXT.DAT is only a notational convenience.
#694 is written on three lines but it is actually one string.  The backslash
immediately following the quoted string indicates that the next line should be
concatenated.  #694 is actually ONE STRING containing:

  "*n*hNode Status<CR><LF>*c____ ___________....<etc>"

If you want to use REPLACE_TEXT to replace it, construct a string containing
all the replacement, and then call REPLACE_TEXT.

(I've butchered my string up there so I could type it, but you figured that out
for yourself, right?)
