How do I create a new line with reStructuredText?
How do I force a line break/new line in rst? I don't want it to be a new paragraph (ie. no additional spaces between the lines), I just want the text to start on a new line. Thanks! The line block syntax also worked, and was a bit cleaner: | This is a line | This is another line | Another new line According to the docs for docutils raw role , you can do this: If there just *has* to be a line break here, :raw-html:`<br />` it can be accomplished with a "raw"-derived role. But the line block syntax should be considered first. You will need to define the raw role first: .. role:: raw-html(raw)
