soo what characters should I replace them with to represent spaces?

ie what do I need to do to "end up" with the desired result? I can easily do a global replace and replace twospaces with "some character" and then replace that character with whatever you tell me will result in a similar effect?

also how do I stop it from removing the line spaces between paragraphs in the first place?

is there some character I can put at each line break so it will LEAVE the space that is already there between paragraphs in place?

In html I can "encapsulate" a block of text to instruct the renderer to NOT format the text but leave it as it is.

is there something similar I can do here? some <tag> or something I can put at the beginning and end of the file so it encapsulates it "as is" like I can in html?
