Re^2: Two line match

That works except that it only converts two lines of ----- into one. I wanted it to be able to convert any number of lines of

-----

------

------> into 1 line of it. Shouldn't the /g do that? Jeff

My code converts 2 consecutive lines of 5 dashes into one line of 5 dashes (between the line of "a"'s and the line of "b"'s). My code also converts 3 consecutive lines of 5 dashes into one line of 5 dashes (between the line of "b"'s and the line of "c"'s). You can add any arbitrary number of lines of 5 dashes, and they will all be converted to one line of 5 dashes. I guess I do not understand your question afterall.	[reply]
