I was messing with Util.pm and I found where the line breaks are added in:

CODE

sub html_text_transform {
my $str = shift;
$str ||= '';

my @paras = split /\r?\n\r?\n/, $str;
for my $p (@paras) {
$p =~ s!\r?\n! \n!g;
$p = "$p";
}
join "\n\n", @paras;
}

I simply changed this:

CODE

$p = "$p";

to this:

CODE

$p = "$p ";

And so far, I haven't noticed any major problems! I'm able to have everything aligned right, no spaces between the title and the entry, and I can keep 'convert line breaks' on for the posts so I don't have to hand code everything in- plus I can use the smilies in the comments without having HUGE blank lines there

Hope this helps anyone who might need it! And I hope I don't notice any problems with it *crosses fingers*

I've noticed only one thing so far- paragraphs in the entries are only separated by one line instead of 2- but if you just hit 'enter' twice, that should fix it
