In your code the following line

use constant kParaSpace => 4;

appears to be the setting for the gap between paragraphs when the paragraph tags are used.

When I tested your editor the gap between paragraphs is rather wider than seems to be the norm in most PerlMonks posts. Perhaps kParaSpace should be set to 2?

This is a minor nitpick; otherwise this is very slick. Kudos to you...

Your analysis is quite correct Scott. That feature was jammed in just before I posted the code immediately before leaving on holiday over Easter so the gap hasn't been fine tuned. However I suspect it may be influenced by things such as the default font being used by the Text widget and perhpas by various system settings and display resolution.

A number of things such as that could be made user preferences when the code is more fully developed.

Glad to hear that you are using it for real BTW - Kudos to you :). (It's really a rather preliminary version.)
