I'm looking for a utility that will change: Mary had a\n little\n lamb, it's fleece was white\n as snow.\n To: Mary has a little lamb, it's fleece was white as snow. Further, I'd like it to recognize the period at the end of a sentence as the only possible place where a new line might be appropriate as a separator before the next paragraph. What I'm trying to do is format pages of text that have arbitrary newline characters at position 72 and remove all of them except the ones that separate paragraphs. The fmt utility can fix up the sentence above, but it inserts newlines of its own. Does such a utility exist? Thank You -- Bill Gradwohl YCC (817) 224-9400 x211 www.ycc.com SPAMstomper Protected E-mail www.stomperware.com
