Suppressing line breaks between paragraphs #156

Description

@aewingate

This issue was discussed at the main meeting on 7-28-2025.

Apparently it has been an issue since the beginning of the project that line breaks are automatically inserted between <p> even though Newton does not actually have line breaks but instead indents to indicate changes in paragraph. At the time, there was no way to suppress the line breaks automatically inserted between <p> elements in the HTML output.

Bill wants to know if there is actually a way to do this now.

Basically, instead of this (using Lorem ipsum), which is what we currently have:

We'd want this:

If there is a way to do this, excellent! But let me know if there is not, or if it seems to break other important things so I can go back to the group and tell them that it's still not feasible.

Thanks!!
