Mark at end of paragraph

[lobolady]

When I receive files from other people, the end of a paragraph is sometimes
marked with an arrow (like a carriage return sign). Does that behave the same
as the MS paragraph symbol? How can I replace that with the standard
paragraph symbol without having to go through every line? Thanks.

The bent arrow is a line break. You can replace line breaks with paragraph
breaks by replacing ^l (that's a lowercase L) with ^p. For more on
nonprinting characters and what they mean, see

The mark you are describing is for a new line. You can do a global find and
replace. Find ^l and replace with ^p. Also, see:

helpful to you.
