The help for the `info' config option says:
The text will be treated as html except that newlines newlines
will be translated to <br> - so you can use links, preformatted
text, etc, but don't put in carriage returns except where you mean
to separate paragraphs. And review your changes - bad html (like
some unterminated HTML constructs) can prevent display of the
entire listinfo page.
Other that the typo (`newlines' twice in the first sentence), it would
actually be better if a more texinfo like approach was used. Instead
of hard newlines being translated into <br>, translate *blank* lines
(e.g. two newlines) into <br>. That way the text inside the tiny
type-in box could be formatted a little easier.
