Default Find and Replace

It just dawned on me! (\([A-z0-9]\)^t) takes care of the problem I posed in
my previous email about removing space after a replace of manual numbering.

It was a "duh" moment!

It was also a perfect demonstration of the phenomenon that the act of
posting a question often makes one think of the answer. Lots of people do
that all the time.

A minor tweak: If the manual numbering might use either a tab or a space,
the code ^w will match either character.
