Found similar questions in other discussion groups and folks have
verified that the new toy version of pages no longer lets you
search/replace non-printing characters like tabs, linefeed and carriage
returns even if you properly paste them in. I guess that fell by the
wayside in the re-write and hopefully will come back soon.

In text edit I can search for and replace such characters as new lines, by
pressing option return in the find or replace field. In pages, these keystrokes
don't produce new line characters. I tried looking for the new line and
carriage return characters in the characters window by pressing command control
space, but I couldn't find them anywhere.
How can I search for new line characters in pages? I often reformat word
documents by removing multiple new line characters and replacing them with only
one such character so that they read better.
At present, I accomplish this in text edit by searching for New line, New line
and replacing it with New line and replacing all occurrences. As I said, I
can't do this in pages and I'm out of answers.
