For the avoidance of doubt, my purpose was not to support OpenOffice's way of handling paragraph breaks, of course, but merely to describe it.
Other products provide searching for para ends and other "special characters". But I am realizing that Open Office is tied to MS Office to an extent that a great myopia exists, all the way down at the paradigm level.
This is an odd statement. Are you saying that you think that OpenOffice chooses to decline to allow you to see the paragraph break as a character because it apes Microsoft Office in this respect? I believe that is not true: that Microsoft Word, on the other hand, does allow you to search for paragraph breaks (as ^p, I think). I think OpenOffice's choice is to be different here, not the same.
