# paragraph-to-line(3)

[Home] [Commands] [Variables] [Macro-Dev] [Glossary]

## NAME

paragraph-to-line - Convert a paragraph to a single line

## SYNOPSIS

n paragraph-to-line

## DESCRIPTION

paragraph-to-line is a variation of fill-paragraph(2). paragraph-to-line reduces each of the next n paragraphs of text to single lines. This command is typically used to prepare text for import into a word processor such as Microsoft Word or Word Perfect. Reduction of text to a single line allows the word processor to import the raw text file and keep the text within paragraph blocks. If the text is not prepared then all of the line-feeds have to be manually deleted.

paragraph-to-line allows text based documents to be prepared in MicroEmacs 2009 and imported into the word processor at the final stage for formatting and layout.

## NOTES

paragraph-to-line is a macro defined in `format.emf`.
