Hello everyone,

I am new to this list (I downloaded AbiWord only yesterday), so I apologize if this has been asked before. This is what I would like to ask:

Is there a way to handle paragraph marks and tab marks in AbiWord‘s search/replace? For instance, in MS Word, if I wanted to add an extra line (empty) after each paragraph of text, I would need to type:

search for ^p

replace with ^p^p

What should I put instead of ^p in AbiWord?

Also for tab marks: what should I put instead of MS Word‘s ^t?

Cheers,

Ivan
