	How to replace hard returns (EOL) in MText?
	Use the LISP application by CAD Studio - srxText (www.cadstudio.cz/download) to leave out end-of-paragraph control characters from MText objects or replace them with soft returns (spaces). Enter the searched text as a regular expression `\\P` and replace this text by a single space (or e.g. `\P*` ). Perform the replacement on all selected Mtext entities.
