I have a folder of tab-delimted text. In order to process them

I'm sure I can do that in a batch find/replace or similar process in
BBEdit, but I don't know how.
Any suggestions on where to start?
Thanks.
I think if you have find/replace set to grep then:
Find: \A
Replace: \r\r
will put two returns at the top of a file.
Then all you need to do is click multi-file search check box and use
"Other..." button to select the folder you want.
