That is much cleaner, thanks!
On point 2, say I enter:
Enter text, 'done' on its own line to quit:
I am a sentence. I am another sentence.
I am a new paragraph.
done
What I get out is:
I am a sentence. I am another sentence. I am a new paragraph.
But that just shows the double new lines of my new paragraph as an extra space.
I'd like to print it out so it appears just as it was typed in, with
appropriate newlines.
