Hello vern,

still not sure, but do you mean end of line?
If so, the \r and \n are end of line chars.

Depending on which operating system you edit a file, it will
end a line by adding one or both of this chars to that line.
So on mac os an editor would add an \r, on most unix oses
an editor would add \n and windows editors using \r\n.

So if you want to change something like

<span> text text text
</span>

to

<span> text text text</span>

you would use, same replace settings as before,

Find what: \r\n</span>
Replace with: </span>

Cheers
