Look in the manual? From section 22.1:
The remainder of the entry, up to the end of the line, consists of a list of
addresses, file names, pipe commands, or certain special items (see below).
The items in the list are separated by commas. The list can be continued over
several lines by starting each of the continuation lines with white space. A
comma is still required following an item that ends at the end of a line,
because the lsearch lookup code removes newlines from the string it returns.
