Thanks!  The n was left over from processing \n, which should have
resulted in a new line. I replaced it now with (:nl:). Updated script
uploaded.

Perhaps I should do so in future and insert a version number into the
script. I do try and document each version update on the page in
cookbook.

If you have a need for multiple journal or diary pages, and youw ant
an easier way to create them , i suggest you use newpageboxplus.php,
which lets you a) use a template, b) lets you autosave the new page,
so it will not open in edit mode, because it is saved already.


Best,
