Description Craig 2012-07-10 21:40:03 UTC 
I have a "readme.txt" file with the following text:

Project Name (#mainpage)
========

Website: <blah>  
Author: name  
Version: 1.0  
etc...

There are two spaces at the end of each non-header line above which should force a <br /> in the generated html. Instead, I get all the text run together on a single line.

I have the same problem on Linux (doxygen 1.8.4) and OSX (doxygen 1.8.5).

As discussed in https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen/pull/734 , Doxygen has moved its issue tracking to 

   https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen/issues

All Doxygen tickets in GNOME Bugzilla have been migrated to Github. You can subscribe and participate in the new ticket in Github. You can find the corresponding Github ticket by searching for its Bugzilla ID (number) in Github.

Hence I am closing this GNOME Bugzilla ticket.
Please use the corresponding ticket in Github instead. Thanks a lot!
