🪲 BAM now allows blank lines between lines of code

I am really happy to have finally solved this problem.

It has existed in BASIC Anywhere Machine from day 1.

Nothing related to wwwBASIC, but rather a problem in the "wikification" process, the process of taking a BASIC program in a tiddler, and translating it into plain text that gets inserted into the dynamically created HTML page (HTML, javascript, and the BASIC program).

At the end of the process, the dynamically generated HTML page is fed into an iframe that displays the BASIC console.

It all boiled down to my misunderstanding of TiddlyWiki's "wikify" widget.

This is a huge relief to this kid.  I like loads of blank lines to make a complex program easier to understand.
