Currently, most literature in-game have paragraphs with only a single line break after. Like this:

17.1.2 FREEZE TAG
Freeze tag is a game that is played in an arena. When a God initializes this
event, you may type JOIN FREEZETAG. Upon doing so, you will be deposited in a
room in the Arena, and given a freeze wand. You will also temporarily lose most
of your skills.
The rules of the game are simple: If you are frozen three times, you are out
of the game. The last person still in wins. Every thirty seconds or so, you
will recover one 'freeze'. Typing FREEZES will show you how many times you
have been frozen.
In order to freeze someone in your location, simply type FREEZE . In
order to freeze someone NOT in your location, but within your line-of-sight,
type FREEZE . If you are hit by a freezewand, you will
lose the use of your wand for a short period of time.
An added twist to freeze tag is that there is a fairy that will chase after
the last person to try to freeze someone else. If it catches that person, it
Type MORE to continue reading. (65% shown)



But I want to be able to add another line break so that paragraphs has more spacing in-between:

It's more of a preference than anything, but I really like my writing that way. Is there a command for this?

Eh, what? I get line breaks in that helpfile...

will freeze him or her once.

Note that by standing in the spectator stands off of the Arena staging area,
you will be able to see when someone freezes someone else.

Summary of commands:
JOIN FREEZETAG : Joins the game.
FREEZE : Freezes a player in your location.
FREEZE : Freezes a player in the given direction.
FREEZES : See how many times you have been frozen.
ES/EVENTSTATUS : See information on the game's participants.

Which client are you using? Nexus? Flash? Other?

Just hit enter/return one more time. It will add another line break.

When editing/writing, yes. I thought the complaint was regarding the current HELP-files (from the example), so that wouldn't really help much in those cases since you're unlikely to be able to edit those.

Mushclient tends to remove linebreaks from written materials.

I'll see if I can find the setting though...

I'm not sure if it helps, but when I was using Eth's system (AG2.0), I couldn't see line breaks. After switching to Zarquan's (Treant), they magically came back.

Ethe has alot of redundent/stupid gags in his system that he never took out.
