Default macro to delete line break

Hi all,



I often have clients who enter manual returns in parts of their document (for instance, in a list of references at the end of a scholarly document).

I use a handy find and replace with wildcards
Find: (^13)([a-z])
Replace: /2

This removes the manual line break in the middle of reference entries (but not line breaks between references, because those almost always start with a capital letter).

Is there a simple macro that I could use to do the same? (if it is detailed, please don't spend time and I can delete the thread--I'm just wondering if it happens to be simple for those who know).
