<cr> doesn't insert newline in the middle of a line with text when tpope/vim-endwise is running

[hneutr]

replication steps:

• with vim-endwise running, open a file and add a line of text.

• run :Pencil. go to somewhere in the middle of the text

• hit . nothing will happen (or a space will be inserted)

• disable vim-endwise and repeat - a newline will now be (properly) inserted.

If anyone else runs into this an easy solution is to overwrite endwise's CR mapping.
autocmd FileType markdown inoremap <buffer> <CR> <CR>

Problem solved 😄
