	in my manuscript, i have many places where i'ved used several newlines to indicate a
	jump in time, or topic, or mood, or <<whatever>>.  i have lost these vertical spacing
	in all but my original draft.  can i use grep somehow to find these extra newlines?

	if not grep, then sed, ed, or what?!

	tia,

	gary
