Chris et al, So, for example, I use "\\ " often to insert line breaks in dokuwiki list items, such as: *One, first line\\ One, second line It seems to me that this wouldn't be very intuitive to do otherwise, since we'd never know when the new line was intentional and when unintentional. In general, I figure that if I still have to learn syntax to do _some_ things, I may as well use it for _all_ things. However, I'm also always interested in the expansion possibilities of dokuwiki. Would there be other practical uses for the hook you mention?
