Two new tags on the BRP site:            for paragraph indentation and    for fine line adjustments

           Ever wanted to indent the paragraphs of your blogs, your news entries, or your bamboo shoot entries? Me too : ) Now you can!

           Thanks to BRP webmeister Haken Pax, you can now indent your paragraphs using the            tag — with no space between the [ and the sp5] like I have here so you can see it. The            tag gives you a five -space indentation.

           Example NOT using the            tag at the beginning of the line:

Now is the time for all blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

           Example using the            tag at the beginning of the line:

           Now is the time for all blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

           Pretty cool, huh? The    tag, again with no space between the [ and the sp], gives you a single space.

           And you can use the            tag in combination with the    tag to do any single space fine adjustments you may need for poems like this excerpt from "Inheritance," by Wanda Fujimoto in the third issue of BAMBOO RIDGE, June – August 1979, Full Moon:

Inheritance

my grandmother died
                                             before I had a face
she reclaims me now with silence
                               and a brown photograph:
                                         her kimono, hair, face
                                         the instep of her turned-in foot

           If you could see the tags, they would look like this:

Inheritance

my grandmother died
                                             before I had a face
she reclaims me now with silence
                               and a brown photograph:
                                         her kimono, hair, face
                                         the instep of her turned-in foot

    Aloha,

    I appreciate you folks letting us know how to indent paragraphs, but how do you double-space the text?

    Mahalo,

    Don.
