The [l] code is a "conditional" end of line. It puts you on a new line if you are not already on one. Multiple [l] codes are equivalent to a single [l] unless there is anything between them. I have had blank lines appear in my document because a space got between two of them. The [<] code is an "unconditional" hard return, like what you get when you hit Enter in a word processor. Each of these codes forces you to a new line. two [<] codes in a row produce one blank line, just as [l][<] or [l][sl1] or [sk1] would. The [l] code is the proper delimiter for a linear style such as h1., para., etc. I have very little use for the [<] code, because it may cause a blank line when the braille or print, at the current width, has just finished filling a line with text. Both of these codes return to a new line at the margin set by the [ind] or [inm] code that is currently in effect. Hope this helps.
