Hi PM ,

Thank you for the detailed and helpful response , as always .

The difficulty I have with this functionality , and things like
bullets (/$#/) is that because I have
      local/config.php $HTMLLinebreak = "<br>"
it breaks up those structures .  Thinking further on it , I would
likely have the same difficulty if <blockquote> was implemented.

Now if there was a way not to have breaks within the other
structures : either a different break , or less desirable having to
manually escape "<-" that would be something else ...

O look @ that , this can already be achieved by using "\\" on lines
that I want within the other structure .  As Mr. Burns would say ,
  "Excellent"

Peace ,
Lloyd
