Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear enough. The text that I want to treat as a
"block" includes more than one paragraph. For example, I have
programming code pasted from somewhere else. Each line is a new
paragraph. I can format each line to "keep with the next paragraph," but
this does not work well (if only because the "keep with next paragraph"
seems to get turned off when the text moves.

The only way I can see doing this is to use a 1x1 table. I also would
love to know how to keep text together (e.g., PM2.5 where the 2.5 is a
subscript) and not break at the end of a line into PM on one line and
2.5 on the next or some other variant.
