I've used it, I've read examples using it, I've tried to search why people use it... but still?

I have a Table (multiple rows, multiple columns, see below ) that is longer than one page.
How can I tell LaTeX to continue on the next page.
Adding a \newpage didn't work

So I just ran into the following code...
Sub OutputDataToExcel()
OutputLine("Output DataBlocks", 1)
OutputDataBlocks()

Sorry to ask a subjective question, but I would welcome some advice. I am an experienced programmer of embedded s/w, but haven't done much network programming, although I have done a fair bit of hobbyist PHP.

I spend a lot of time at the command-line during the workday and at home too since I run Ubuntu exclusively.
I've been using the default gnome terminal but I've reached a point where I'd really like to get my terminal tricked out so that my common tasks are as easy as possible. Specifically, I find…
