Quick additional questions:

If I have multiple files open, can I remove line breaks from them all at 
once? I've selected all open documents that are in the side tabs, but the 
remove line breaks option is greyed out. 

Is this something that I need to do some kind folder search/multi-file 
search and grep? They are all in the same folder.  I'm assuming the bulk 
edit operation to hard wrap text is similar to doing remove line breaks in 
bulk?

I've searched in the manual for bulk edit operation and the faq and I 
clearly must not know the correct wording for this. Thank you for any 
pointers
