Re: Question about paragraphs: make lines containing only whitespace characters a paragraph separator

[Thomas]

Maybe I misunderstand the problem but can't you change those lines
with just blanks to empty lines?

Sure I can remove the whitespace characters. But I'd rather simply not 
have to care about them (but this is filetype-dependent because for some 
filetypes this really could be what I want).

I was just wondering if there maybe already is a (buffer local) option 
to do this.
