About this issue

Markdown doesn't render correctly on Android when a line ends with two spaces followed by a newline.

Based on the markdown syntax, two space and a newline should be represented as a line break.

But it has been rendered three line breaks in this library.

I've went though the code and it seems the parsing isn’t accurate.
For instance, take the string "abc \n" where there are two spaces after "abc".
After parsing, the output incorrectly includes the elements TEXT, BR, and EOL.

And according the logic here, the BR will be translated to two '\n'. As a result, the render will not be as expected.

btw, if we have a string like "abc \n".(one spaces after abc).
After parsing, the output includes the children like TEXT/WHITESPACE/EOL.

Could some one help check on this issue?

Thank you for the report.

Can you provide a few sample markdowns with various combinations? This would help a great deal to look into this more.

Thanks for the response.

Here is one example,

"**Aug 24, 2023** \n6:00 AM - 7:00 AM MST \n8:00 AM - 8:30 AM MST\n\n**Aug 28, 2023** \n8:00 AM - 8:30 AM MST\n\n**Aug 30, 2023** \n8:00 AM - 8:30 AM MST \n11:00 AM - 12:00 PM MST \n"

There are two spaces after **Aug 24, 2023**, followed by a line break.
