Thanks very much Simon.
I had never expected such a trivial reason for that strange behaviour.
I changed my fixed font from Courier 10 to Courier new 10 and viola
* After the change in the "General" tab a press on enter inserts an 
empty line and
* after I changed the font in the Editor Tab too all the blank lines 
reappeared.

Thanks again.
