ASCII Text output using Jade

Subject: ASCII Text output using Jade

I'm trying to create an ASCII text file using a DSSSL stylesheet and
Jade. So far, I'm using an old DSSSL stylesheet and the command line
that I'm using is:

jade -d digest.dsl -t sgml xml.dcl digest1.xml

This will output the plain text without markup to my screen. The only
problem is that I can't insert returns. All of the text is running
together. I was thinking that I could use an escape sequence but Jade
gave me an error when I inserted \n as a literal.

What I would like to know is:
	1) Am I approaching the problem at the right angle? Is there an
eaiser way to get plain ASCII text from a stylesheet?

	2) Could someone tell me if there is a command or escape
sequence to force a line return?

Thanks for the help.
