------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Feb 17 08:57:05 -0800 2005 ------- Hi, While working on a book, I imported some source code text, with unix \n line endings, so it was seen as a series of paragraphs by OOo. In order to tighten things up a bit, I wanted to change those to line-breaks. However, the search and replace regexp engine doesn't seem to be able to do that. It regards $ as a paragraph in the search window, and \n as a line-break in the search window. However, neither one works as a line break in the replace field. \n is a paragraph in the replace field, and $ is just $. Also, shift-return doesn't work to input a line break in the replace field. The manual documents all this, but it still leaves me with no way to easily transform a series of paragraphs into line breaks...
