- I find that most (if not all) of the time if I'm posting from Lynx, leaving a blank line doesn't create a new paragraph.

Interesting. Maybe the pattern of ascii characters used to create a CRLF are different in lynx?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yup. Ouise's posts are broken with \\n\\n instead of \\r\\n.

I find you have to skip several lines to get a blank line in Lynx.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Sue, how many?

Jeez, let me test... Two lines Three lines Four lines...I usually just use the br tag in Lynx anyway. Aha, it's not doing anything. Now I've edited it in Netscape and the line breaks are included. In Lynx now, and will they disappear.

How hard is it to add that to the code?

edit: interesting. My backslashes disappeared...

re-edit: Ahh! Thanks ita.

Easy for John. Less easy for me.

Backslashes have to be doubled. \\\\ to give \\.

Please don't worry about coding that. It isn't that much of a hassle to use br.

And I only use Lynx to catch-up these days, so I'm not sure there's a pressing need.

Are there any other Lynx users?
