I've found myself using "$+$ space $+$" in order to insert a blank line between two docs.
There are probably other ways to do it. "(test "")" (and $$) instead of "space" (or $+$) also work in many cases (but not "empty"). Which way would be the best?
Maybe one could add a further function "$++$" to do this and a list version "vsep" of "$++$"?
Another idea might be something like a vertical space "vspace" so that several blank lines would be created by: $$ vspace $$ vspace $$ ...
This is ugly: x $++$ y = (x <> text "") $+$ text "" $+$ (text "" <> y) However, I don't know if it's OK that (show (empty $++$ empty) == "\n\n"). Best regards, Tomasz
