Yes, it's not very long. But I wanted to do it
quickly without programming. Then, what's the
point of having keyboard macros?

For the time being I came through by using

<<search-backward>>     ;; search-backward
C-q                     ;; quoted-insert
LFD                     ;; nroff-electric-newline
C-q                     ;; quoted-insert
LFD                     ;; nroff-electric-newline
RET                     ;; newline

instead of "backward-paragraph".

I hate when programs don't behave as I expect.
Especially with Emacs :-) Although most of the
time it is because I don't understand them.
