That is, there somehow getting one empty line in between every line. I work with a lot of people across many platforms and I find it very annoying when large pieces of code or language gets doubled up like that. Would anyone happen to know how to then: 1) Reduce all empty single lines to no lines 2) Reduce all empty double lines to a single line To restore things? Thanks, Kyrre
