[tlug] vi: how to insert line breaks?

["Jean-Christian Imbeault" <jean_christian@example.com>]

I've searched ed/vi docs but can't find ...

How can I go a global search and replace in ed/vi to insert a line break? 
I'm trying to do this for an HTML file, but I'd like to know how to do it in 
general.

I've tried:

s/<br>/\\n/g

But all that does is put a literal "/n", not a line break ...

Thanks,

Jc
