Reply To: Grep to find all-italic paragraphs

Jim,

.+means 'one or more characters'..* stands for 'zero or more characters', so that would find </i><i> as well. But . doesn't match the end-of-paragraph marker, and in this case that seems good because </i> at the end of a paragraph and <i> at the beginning of the next one seem legitimate. Or not?
