I am trying to strip out double line breaks with no luck. What am I doing wrong?

fileread, chopthis,%a_workingdir%\DownloadedCasts\%plist%
stringreplace,chopthis,chopthis,%RowText%,
stringreplace,chopthis,chopthis,`n`n`n,`n,1
stringreplace,chopthis,chopthis,`n`n,`n,1
fileappend,%chopthis%,%a_workingdir%\DownloadedCasts\%plist%

Untested:

Code:

While Var contains `n
{
   StringReplace, Var, Var, `n
}

If not that maybe

Code:

n_ := "`n"
While Var contains %n_%
{
   StringReplace, Var, Var, `n
}

Does this work ?

Code:

fileread, chopthis,%a_workingdir%\DownloadedCasts\%plist% 
stringreplace,chopthis,chopthis,%RowText%, 
; Remove all blank lines from the text in a variable:
Loop
{
    StringReplace, chopthis, chopthis, `r`n`r`n, `r`n, UseErrorLevel
    if ErrorLevel = 0  ; No more replacements needed.
        break
}


fileappend,%chopthis%,%a_workingdir%\DownloadedCasts\%plist%

Have a look at examples in the help for stringreplace

RegEx solution:

Code:

NewString := RegExReplace(OldString,"\R+", "`r`n")

Not sure if you want that `r there.
