Nice sounding enhancement. FYI, about 25 years ago in pre-HTML days, I
worked on a wiki like project whose display code was parsed somewhat
similar to that this cookbook addition offers. Anyway, one of our
rules for text formatting was <br>
<ul>
<li>Indents of x spaces created a new paragraph whose first line was
indented X spaces. <br>
</li>
<li>Subsequent lines without indents or other formatting code to end
the paragraph were word wrapped as part of the indented paragraph. <br>
</li>
</ul>
Is this how your recipe works for paragraphs? or does it treat text
with an indent as preformatted unwrapped text? <br>

PmWiki has a number of markup rules which enforce a standardised
layout of content, by removing empty spaces, empty lines and line
breaks. Intuitive spacing offers an alternative by preserving spaces
tabs and empty lines.
This new recipe script contains a number of changes to some PmWiki markup
definitions, which will override PmWiki's defaults for handling white
spaces and empty lines.
With this recipe
* line breaks are honoured.
* empty lines are honoured as extra vertical space.
* a half height empty line can be created by inserting new markup >>-<<
* empty spaces at the beginning of lines are treated as such, not as a
change to preformatted text.
* empty spaces at the beginning which are aligned with previous list
elements will be treated as continuing the list element on the next line.
* pasting in of tab characters are supported.
* PmWiki's tab markup -> etc is not changed.
* pasting in of email content or content from word processors where empty
spaces were used for layout will look decent and not break the skin
layout.
* optionally PmWiki's code and escape markup can be forced to line wrap.
Comments and suggestions are welcome and much needed!
Best regards,
Hans
