Hi Fletcher and Chris.
I tried both your methods and they both worked for placing the tags. Then I
used the pattern to sort lines and that worked as well. That is just wild
and awesome!
I'd have sat here a year sorting that out myself. Thank you both.

Hey David,
I'm thinking something like this:
Find:
\s+((?:#\w+\h*)+)
Replace:
“ \1”

As for the rest. I have a few text factories that don't rely on any saved

Once it's unwrapped you can turn on Soft Wrap, or use Hard Wrap to reflow
it to a specific width."
This worked, thanks!

If the tags always start with hash marks then you can find "\s+#" and replace
with " #". Basically you're just replacing whatever white space appears before
each # with a single space.
For sorting you can look at Sort Lines... on the Edit menu. Sort with a pattern
like "#.+" with Entire Match
I have a long text that I tagged, I'd like to move those tags up to the end
of the last line they are under:

Hello,
I've got a bunch of files that were cleaned up so they are just text. The
text looks fine, except I can't for the life of me figure out how to get it
to fill up horizontal space so I can read them like a pdf/document. I've
played around with hard/soft wrap options for hours and the
