Hi, Roselle.
I have a braille note qt on loan. So, I wouldn't be doing things with braille.

OK, I'm a bit confused, Paul. Do you or do you not have a BrailleNote?
Anyway, to answer your question:
Press BACKSPACE with F (CTRL with F. Type F to search forward or B for
back. Enter two new line markers as the search string by pressing SPACE
with dots 2-6 (CTRL with ENTER) twice. Hit ENTER. Type a single new line
marker (SPACE with dots 2-6 or CTRL with ENTER once) as the replacement
string. Hit ENTER. This is the right way to do it, because you cannot
just tell the BN to replace the second new line marker with nothing, and
ignore the first one in the pair.
However, in cases where you really want to replace something with nothing,
you can do this in version 5 by pressing SPACE with dots 3-5-6 (CTRL with
BACKSPACE) at the prompt asking for the replacement string. BTW, this is
an undocumented command for the Find, and Search & Replace facilities.
In v4.1 and earlier versions, you would have to reset the unit first just
to clear out both the search and replacement prompts. Yuck! Goes to show
how handy is this undocumented command.
HTH,
Roselle
