Hi Eric, this is pretty doable.
In IdFormatter class text:
change
instance formatter: [:text :request :response :shelf :book :page |
(formatter format: text request: request response: response shelf:
shelf book: book page: page), '<br>', String cr].
to
instance formatter: [:text :request :response :shelf :book :page |
(text = '')
ifTrue: ['<p>', String cr]
ifFalse: [(formatter format: text request: request response: response
shelf: shelf book: book page: page), String cr]].
I'm not sure that this is advisable though. For instance, in e-mail, I
can do a list
1) frog
2) duck
3) rabbit
and with your formatting it would show up as 1) frog 2) duck 3) rabbit.
Of course, in Swiki, you should be able to do
#frog
#duck
#rabbit
and everything will turn out okay.
Peace and Luck!
