Intending Text

no indent (normal)?:first indent?::second indent?:::third indent

A colon indents a line or paragraph.

A manual newline starts a new paragraph.

The blockquote command will indent both margins when needed instead of the left margin only as the colon does.

Centered text.

Horizontal Line

A horizontal dividing line: this is above it...

---

...and this is below it.

Newline

A single newline has no effect on the layout.

But an empty line starts a new paragraph.

You can break lines
without starting a new paragraph.
