I think normalizing the text makes sense if: 1) single line breaks get removed from plain text files (but not double spaces) 2) this normalization doesn't happen in LT core, but in the command-line client My understanding is that's not enough for your use case as you use spaces for indentation? For me, this sounds like a general input format issue, just like people want to use LT to check LaTeX. We cannot support that in the core, but if we find a way to do it outside that would be okay for me. We just need to avoid becoming a parser for every format out there. We already have the concept of annotated text[1], I think this could be used to check plain text files. "\n" is then markup just like "<h1>" is markup in XML. So we don't need normalization in that sense, but we need to parse the input.
