As a frequent downloader of Unix articles to my Macintosh, I have a great
need to have a utility that removes the Return characters from the ends of
every line in a paragraph.  MacWrite does it when you open a text document
and hit the LINE FEEDS button, and the Fkey Clipper 1.5 USED to do this to
any text in the Clipboard... until I started using System/Finder 4.1/5.5.

Does anyone have an easy way?  A PD/ShareWare application that does this?
I'd appreciate any info...
