What does the "don't auto-format" option do?

By default auto-format is enabled.

Auto-format does the following:

- Automatically inserts breaks between lines for you. If you hit enter to move down to the next line that is how the post will appear on your journal.

- When linking to a site, the HTML will be created for you - (ex. type http://www.blurty.com in a post and it automatically becomes a link).

If you prefer to format posts yourself (ex. <br /> to create a line break) then you should select the "don't auto-format" option. If you don't know what you want, you probably want to keep it unchecked.
