Default single letter paragraphs

Not quite. That expression will find any paragraph mark preceded by a
single-character "word", including something like

Give me an Aś

That may be close enough, if your documents don't contain odd beasts
like the above. If not, try

^13[A-Za-z]^13

which finds any single letter (upper or lower case) between two
paragraph marks. This won't find the first paragraph of the document
(because there's no preceding paragraph mark), but that's easy to spot
manually.

Is there a way to use wildcards to find single letter paragraphs? I can do
single letter words with [A-Z] (I only want capital letters), but I haven't
figured out a way to do it for paragraphs.

Thanks,
