      Sometimes I copy some text (from Firefox webpage) into a new NP++ tab.

      Unfortunately the original encoding seems to be Linux/Unix related.
      So although there is in the original only one empty line after each paragraph
      in NP++ tab there are two made out of it.

      I think its somehow because of the different CR LF encoding.

      Ok, now how do I get rid all second empty lines in and with NP++?

        Hello, @claudia-svenson, and All,

        Does running the menu option Edit > EOL Conversion > Windows (CR LF) help ?

        Best Regards,

          No, the menu entry “Windows (CR LF)” is disabled/greyed out

              I don’t think this helps as it does exactly the opposite from what
              I think the OP wants to have.

              No, the menu entry “Windows (CR LF)” is disabled/greyed out

              switch to UNIX line endings and back to Windows.
              To verify that you have windows eol only, press the ¶ from the toolbar or goto view->show symbol->show all characters
