(Possible) formatting issue #44

In all the output formats (Markdown, HTML, EPUB, PDF) each skēnē appears as a single paragraph. This hinders readability, as it is often unclear where dialogue starts and stops, and was probably not your intent. I have checked the markdown files and in the source there are line breaks after each line of dialogue. However, a quirk in Markdown is that each line must end in two spaces for it to render as a line break. Adding two spaces to each of the lines might aid in readability, if it was not intended.

Thanks, I'll look into this. It's not intentional, but it appears to be a product of some of the processing that goes on.

There might be settings in each of the convertor programs to treat the bare Markdown line break as an actual line break without needing the extra two spaces. Perhaps you can just pass an extra argument/flag to them; this would only require editing the .sh files and not each .md file.
