--- Comment #2 from Federico Atristain <federico.atristain at yahoo.com> ---
Yes, thank you.  I tried using the $ too but it does not work.

I have a document that has 2 empty paragraphs together after a full one for
example (I am representing the paragraph marking with (\n)):

This is the full paragraph (\n)
(\n)
(\n)

When I do a search/replace entering in the search box:
$$$

And putting in the replace box:
\n\n

I would expect to see the result as follows:
This is the full paragraph (\n)
(\n)

This means eliminating one of the "paragraph end" markings, however, it does
not work either using the \n\n\n in the search or using the $$$.

It states that it does not find it.
