Hello,

I have a text file where the start and end of List will be marked with <list> and </list>. I want to code every paragraphs appearing inside this to be tagged as <item> and </item>

+ over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The 
+quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps ov
+er the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

+ over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The 
+quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps ov
+er the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
