Re: Bug: Babel blocks with continuation line at end of block fails to export [7.8.03 (release_7.8.03.542.gdfeac)]

[Eric Schulte <eric.schulte@gmx.com>]

Hi Bernt,

This is a problem with the HTML exporter (notice that export to ASCII
works as expected).  I can reproduce the problem, but I'm not very
familiar with the workings of the exporters, so I can't suggest or
implement a fix.

Best,
