      This has been bugging me for a long time. Is there a way to prevent Notepad++ from displaying rows of blank space when pasting text from IMDB? I tried all of the settings in the Find box, but nothing happened.

      For example, https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000078/ then click on ‘1 episode’ for Gunsmoke, highlight, and copy Gunsmoke

      1 episode
      1955
      

      See what happens even here?

      To remove the spaces easily, I have to either use DuckDuckGo’s search box or the Everything search program to get the result Gunsmoke 1 episode 1955.

      Using those prevents the text from spreading out with rows of blank space. All I have to do is click in front of 1955, use the back button 4 times, click in front of 1 episode, then use the back button 5 times.
