Hi,
I have some text. I know I can use TextMate to do first Soft Wrap (and I set the colums to 80). Then, I select the whole text and do Reformat Paragraph and Justify.
But after this, I don't want the justification to occur at the last line of a paragraph. Therefore, I manually select the last line of every paragraph and do Reformat Paragraph on those. Is there a way to automate this last process, that is do Reformat Paragraph on all last lines of all paragraphs?
Also: How would I be able to do this without TextMate, i.e. in the command line? I'm interested in that because I would like to create a PHP script that does exactly this.
Cheers, Ulai

You can record the actions as a macro, do a regexp search for (?=\n\n| \z) to get to the end of last line.
I did one for you (click to install):

From the command line, to collapse whitespace (and newlines) into one space, and then wrap at the last space before column 80, you would do:
tr -s '[\n ]' ' '|fold -sw80
To then distribute spaces on all but last line, well, you need to write some code… :)
