With the old system (and I admit I may have been doing this wrong/the hard way) whenever I wanted to responded to a person's quoted content paragraph by paragraph I would switch to BBCode (or whatever that was called) in order to add carriage returns (new lines) and mark a portion of the quote ended, add a few blank lines, then copy/paste the code for the top of the quote ("on June 15th so-and-so wrote...") in order to split the paragraph in two so that I could respond to that first specific part (and maybe later parts, too). I can't figure out on the toolbar how to do that now, right clicking at the point where I want to split the quoted content does nothing. I tried Googling CKEditor but I guess I didn't word the question right because I couldn't find an answer that way, either.
So, what is the modern way to change
[a bunch of quoted text in the blue-outlined box]
to
[a bunch of quoted text]
my comment
[in the blue outlined box]
my other comment
so that my response can more directly reference specific statements in the quoted text?
