+==== Emacs replacement trick ADC used when writing SPM table report tool ====
+(from [[internal:mathwonc_spm_tables#emacs_regexp_trick|here]])
+In output file (“taldaemon_i_plus.td.txt” e.g.), AC used emacs regexp (regular expression) to reformat BA's, and just copied a rectangle to get region descriptions:
+<code emacs>
+[M-x] replace-regexp [RET]
+^.*Brodmann area.\([0-9]+\).* [RET]
+BA\1 [RET]

+==== Emacs regexp for removing newline characters from text copied from Adobe PDF file ====
+[Originally from Anthony's ''science.txt'' file, entry dated 2015-09-03]
+To remove all Windows newlines:
+<code>
+M-x replace-regexp
+C-q C-j RET
+RET
+</code>
+To add a newline before heading names, e.g. "I." or "A."
+<code>
+M-x replace-regexp
+.\. RET
+C-q C-j \& RET
+</code>
+\\
+----
+==== Add line break (RETURN) to end of all lines ====
+[Put another way: insert spaces, insert empty line in between every line.]
+<code>
+M-x replace-regexp
+.$[RET]
+\&[C-q][C-j][RET]
+</code>
+"\&" is the emacs pattern that stands for "the entire matched pattern"
+C-q indicates something like "insert the following input literally" (I remember it by thinking of this as "quoting" something).
+C-j inserts a line break (a RETURN keypress, but this might not be the most precise description).
