You might want to give a look to a product called "StructuredText Document" 
under http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/STX_Document. It will keep the 
the layout as typed without having to give any HTML. But the good thing 
with it is that you can add some HTML tags if needed and they will be 
rendered correctly in your browser. There is also a How-To about structued 
text ( http://www.zope.org/Members/millejoh/structuredText )

The other way to use structured-text is by telling it to Zope when you 
render and object with <dtml-var stx_doc_name fmt=structured-text>
  (taken from the how-to mentioned above). the structured-text format is 
one of these many cool Zope features.

Other way arround would be to manually add a <BR> before every carriage 
return you make... but I don't think that's what you want ;-)
