how do you "find and replace" carriage returns?

In the find/replace dialog box, select "more" and then "special", and
choose paragraph mark. Or you can just enter ^p in the find box.

For example replacing ^p^p with ^p will eliminate blank lines in your
document

Others that are useful:
^t = tab
^l = line break (created with a shift-enter)

thanks, that works to an extent, (^p works for me, rather than what I
tried ^l)
However , even ^p doesn't work with wildcards.

e.g.
http*^p
