External text formatting

[DanielM]

Is there a plug in(s) and a script available that would let me replace line breaks, i.e., paragraphs to tabs in an external text file?

Thank you

David McKee's free File Toolbox:

A newer plug-in, Troi's File plug-in:

Troi's has the advantage of "replace in place," which makes it much easier to do multiple operations.

It's available for all current operating systems (Mac, Windows).

Another would be the OpenSource File Toolbox plug-in at:

http://www.fmplugin.org/compile.htm

See the file-Substitute command.

(Not sure if this is the same as the one at protolight.com as I haven't been able to pull up that link.)
