I noticed something that might be related. In my exported MT text file, I see this:

Is it possible that there’s some other value I can change the CONVERT BREAKS line to, so that WordPress will pick up both hard returns in my entry bodies?
Again, WP seems to be picking up a singular hard return… but not in cases where I have more than one.
I’m dusting off my regular expression chops, but would still love some other option than running multiple find/replace passes…
