I know that some people like to specify exactly where to insert a line break in their posts rather than leave that up to the browser. You may be aware that a double back-slash \\ will cause a line break, but it can get a bit tedious if there are many lines involved. There is another way to do it though.
Enclose your text in triple square brackets, like this ...
[[[ some short lines of text ]]]
It should come out looking like this ...
some short
lines of
text

The problem I always have is that I don't understand the line spacing. Sometimes there's no gap when I leave a blank line; sometimes there's twice the gap I'd expect. Such as after a block of <eucode> or {{{preformatteed text}}}. I just think the parsing should be a little more consistent is all.

Yes, that has been a problem and I am unsure if it is related to CSS or not.
