I have a document that has extra blank lines a plenty. Any easy way to remove them? I have TextEdit, Word, and Pages but have not found a way to do it. Maybe an Apple script?

Thanks!

There's a Service called Format that I think I got from Devon . Go there and download WordServices, which offers lots of cleanup possibilities, including removing blank lines. there's some other useful freeware at that site. I use them all the time.

There's also a Service called SmartWrap, and apps called PlainClip and TextSoap that clean up text.

What format is the file? If it's just plain text, a simple Terminal command can do that.

Code:
sed -e '/^$/d' your-file-here.txt > output-file.txt

In Word, replace ^p^p with ^p
