Getting lines of text individually

[Diane Holt <ho...@yahoo.com>]

Is there any way to say:
Here are several
lines of text
treat them as
individual items
in a #foreach.

Thanks,
Diane

Sure

#set($lines= ["Hello","there","Diane"])

#foreach($line in $lines)
$line
#end

Will output

Hello
there
Diane

Now, it's no fun to specify lines of text like this in the Object array
(that's what we call the square bracket thingy...), but you could just as
well put that in anything iterable (List, for example) in your Java code,
and iterate over that as shown..
