A ghetto way, but this seems to work.

<IMG src="mypic.jpg" alt="first line
secondline">

In a page encoded in Unicode:

&amp;#x2028;

Would be the correct way to reference a line-break...

In simple ASCII, I believe this should work:
&amp;#x0D;&amp;#x0A;


Also, keep in mind that it is incorrect behavior for a browser to use alt text as a tooltip. This ruins web accessibility.

Instead, use the title attribute, which can be applied to virtually any element. :)
