Interesting problem: An email text is received which you need to
format for publication. The email uses a carriage return at the end
of each line, and a double carriage return for paragraph spacing.
What I'd like to do is remove the cr's at the end of each line, so
the text can be justified, and turn the double cr's into paragraph
controls, or just leave as double cr's. Obviously all this can be
done a line at a time by hand, but it's a pain. Is there any way
someone can suggest to automate this?
Thanx--doug
