What would be the best way to read a joke from a txt file like this

Code:

"joke 1 here and so on
joke1 still here and heeeeeereee
joke 1 ends here"
"joke2 starts here, and continues...
still here too!
and ends here..."

possible to use " " to specify the start and end of a line? or what would be the best way, thanks in advanced Razz

Nevermind, Thanks to DasBrain, i found what i needed.

Here's my code:

Code:

inside jokes.txt

"joke 1 here
still here
ending here"
joke2 here
still here
ending here"

set fd "scripts/jokes.txt"
set jokes [read $fd]
