I've inherited a project where all the private variables, and there are thousands, are separated by a blank line. For instance,

    private pnlSecurityReport _pnlSecurityReport = null;

    private pnlCalendar _pnlCalendar = null;

    private CtlContacts _pnlContacts = null;

    private pnlEmails _pnlEmails = null;

    private CtlNotes _pnlNotes = null;

    private pnlRoles _pnlRoles = null;

    private pnlSecurity _pnlSecurity = null;

    private pnlSignatures _pnlSignatures = null;

This is really annoying. I'd like to remove the blank lines. Beyond writing my own tool to seek out and remove the extra line, is there a way to do this, perhaps, using RegEx-Fu in the Search and Replace dialog?
