documenting Unix command lines; more than one line

Have any of you found a solution for this problem? You are listing literal
entries for the command-line in Unix, and your margins do not accommodate
the full length of the line. How do you indicate that the two lines in your
document do not represent two separate Unix command lines (rather than by
changing margins, fonts, etc.)

Thanks,

Harrison
