in my manuscript, i have many places where i'ved used several newlines to indicate a jump in time, or topic, or mood, or <<whatever>>. i have lost these vertical spacing in all but my original draft. can i use grep somehow to find these extra newlines? if not grep, then sed, ed, or what?! tia, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 5.67a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php
