Hi,
Tried;
change "\\r$" into "" in w with regexp -- remove last carriage return
but that removes the last CR of EACH paragraph.
Is there a way to remove ONLY the last CR in a Document?

Found it,
change "\z\\r$" into "" in w with regexp -- remove trailing carriage return
regexp is for doing things that are in a pattern, hundreds or thousands of
times generally. Why use regexp to remove just one, clearly positioned, CR?
Why not just remove it normally?
if someText ends with (return) then set someText to text 1 thru
-2 of someText

I'm able to find the (return) in the last line but, as yet, I can't
figure out how to delete it. Here's some of my trys.
replace text of last line of window 1 looking for "^c "
replacing with "" -- delete last CR of last paragraph
-- delete last CR of last paragraph
set someText to last line of w as text
if someText ends with (return) then set someText to text 1
thru -2 of someText
replace last line of w with someText
