Kword processor

[jeanrev]

Hi all,

 

I am now discovering Kword and trying to erase the linefeed from a text inserted by copy/paste

I read the description but no special information on the subject (deleting a selected character from the text without replacement)

 

i could enter \r in the "find" window but couldn't find the way not to replace this character

 

anyone using Kword should know it

 

thanks

I could be wrong at this, but I don't believe it will show up in a printed version. I think it's there for you to know as you're looking at the software.

sorry to say it but I cannot make any sense out of your answer ...

what do you mean ?

am I on the wrong forum ?

I am using Mandrake 9.1 since last year and would appreciate to be able to use the attached application

thanks for your reply

You are in the right forum.

 

You are just wanting to get rid of the marks on the document when you view it on your computer, right?

 

Do these same marks appear when you print the document?

 

I haven't used kword in a while, but I will look and see what I can find for you.

thanks,

i just want to erase the carriage return in my document so that Kword will put an automatic carriage return at the end of the lines

[jeanrev]

and all my lines will be completed

then I can process my document as I want with the help of the word processor Kword

"everything you do on Windows sys you can do on Linux "

is that right ?

 

so my question is now :

 

which word processor can find and replace the "paragraph end" given from the keyboard "enter" tab

same question for the line feed mark

 

I tried without succes with Kword

 

thanks to all

I'm afraid I'm not finding your question clear at all - I would have thought that what LiquidZoo said was the answer, but apparently not.

 

Please state what you are trying to do - and why (this will help us understand exactly what the problem is) as clearly as possible - pretend we are all children or something...

OK I am going to explain :

 

When you copy/paste a web page into your favorite Word processor,

you want to process it so that you have the text fitting your page at best

 

And the first thing I do is to eliminate the carriage returns (line feeds) so that I can put the line feed where I want afterwards

 

So I just want to eliminate all the line feed in the text at the start of the process

 

in MS Word you can use the find and replace menu from the edit menu to do this

if you leave the replace with field blank then the line feed are not replaced

which is like deleting them automatically

 

I would have thought that Kword could do the job (looks nice and tidy) but I couldn't find the way

 

i hope you get my point now : I would be glad to find any word processor to replace my no more favorite "MS Word" processor

 

thanks
