Newline breaks

• Markwon version: 4.1.0

While setting text that has newline(s) via Markwon to EditText, I have found some issues atm.

• A single newline doesn’t show up.

Markwon markwon = Markwon.builder(context)
                    .usePlugin(CorePlugin.create())
                    .usePlugin(LinkifyPlugin.create())
                    .build();
markwon.setMarkdown(myEditText, "Test\ntest");

• newlines work and more than 2 newlines is ignored)

markwon.setMarkdown(myEditText, "Test\n\n\n\n\ntest");

If setText the strings without markwon, no issues.

It would be great to resolve the issue asap.

Thank you.

@hello @gbhaumikkumar14,

this works as expected according to the commonmark spec. There are 2 kinds of line breaks - soft and hard. A soft break is a single new line character. By default it is rendered as a space. If you wish to render a new line instead of the space - use SoftBreakAddsNewLinePlugin:

final Markwon markwon = Markwon.builder(this)
        .usePlugin(SoftBreakAddsNewLinePlugin.create())
        .build();

Works like a charm @noties thanks Your library is making life easier.
