Forgive me if this is way too rudimentary of a question, but: I use TextMate to compose some of my blog posts, and sometimes I copy/paste in text from interviews I've done via email (or even chat). Is there any way to make TextMate recognize when there's been a line break between two paragraphs and auto-insert break tags? As it stands now, I need to go in and insert two tags after every line-separated paragraph my interviewees write, which is becoming a PITA.
Any thoughts are much appreciated David Chartier -- My work: professional blogger, The Unofficial Apple Weblog: http://www.tuaw.com Assistant Lead Editor, Download Squad: http://DownloadSquad.com

Have you tried using the markdown or textile convertors? They automatically create paragraphs pretty well.

You could probably use the "Convert to HTML" commands in the Markdown bundle. Or just write all your posts in their entirety using [Markdown][1]. :)
