Hello Francisco,

Very easy with a simple search/replacement, in regular expression search mode :)

• Open the Replace dialog

• SEARCH \R

• REPLACE leave Empty

• If , you previously created a selection, check the In selection option

• Select the Regular expression search mode

• Finally, click on the Replace All button

Notes :

• The syntax \R stands for all types of End of Line characters

• If you need a space, AFTER each comma, just write a single space, in the replace zone

Et voilà !

Best Regards,

If the space after each comma is acceptable, highlight the lines you want to be affected, then select the Edit menu, choose Line Operations, then choose Join Lines. This is a bit simpler than the regex solution, although that works just fine, too.

Hi Scoot,

Yeah, you’re right. In addition, if you previously did a selection, only the selected lines are joined :)

But just consider that the way to always solve things, with regexes, is really my besetting sin !!

Cheers,
