what page break character in a text file

Generally, it's character 0xC, Form Feed. To insert it into your file, try
typing Alt+12 (on the number pad) in your editor:

text text text blah blah blah
[Alt+12]
text text text blah blah blah

(Don't literally type "[Alt+12]", hold Alt and type "12" on the keypad.)

To do it in a batch:

echo Hello,[Alt+12]world!>textfile.txt

Results may vary. (For example, my text editor replaces low-ASCII characters
with '?'.)

you forgot to specify that "12" must be written without quotes ;-)

If you can find double quotes on the number pad, go ahead and include them,
and then share your results. <g>
