How can I remove a line break and all spaces on the next line in the Sublime Text editor?

It happens many times when we need to remove a line end and unnecessary space between an HTML element. So this could be proven as a time-saving technique.

You can also use \n+ to remove all the unwanted space. If you want to use a single line then replace with \n online.

In your Sublime Text user settings, you can specify the following to trim trailing white space.

"trim_trailing_white_space_on_save": true

You might want to have a look at the Trimmer that has a couple of options to trim whitespace.

  1. open Search and replace (CTRL+H)
  2. enable "Regular Expression" (circled in red)
  3. enter \n\s+ in the search field, clear the replace field
  4. press "Replace all"

enter image description here

This will remove all newlines (\n+) followed by all whitespace (\s+) in the next line.
