Change text to string

[EntityReborn]

I know the title seems a little confusing... but here is my idea...
Basically, as you cannot put quotes into a string without using chr(34) too easily, just for the heck of it, and to learn more, I coughed up this furball I call text2String. basically, you all the function, entering a line of text(ie from a file, or a textbox), and it will return to you the string used to write a file with. Changes ' " ' to chr(34), as well as if the input had newlines in it, the line will " & _" break, making it easier to read.

Obviously, not too helpful, but its practice, and... I did mention it was a furball for a reason. Please help me tidy this mess up!

Small note on the code: lastwasChr means if a Chr() was added, meaning we are outside of quote marks atm. lastwasCrLf means just added & _, to no need to add another &, which is what AddAmperstand is used for. hackish in a huge way, i know!
