Warning: the answer was posted 8 years ago. (Although I believe you have an old Eclipse version, so maybe that doesn't matter that much.) And also there's a fair bit of squabbling about just how to do it and whether to use regular expressions and if so which ones. But you might be able to pick a correct answer out of all that.
The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.
You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.

Whitespace is important in a program, especially when used judiciously. Whitespace makes your program easier to read, it helps you separate things that logically belong together from other things, and it helps make the structure of your code easier to discern.
Code without any blank lines at all would be horrific to read.

Eclipse has lots of ways to select, insert and delete text, and many of them are just the same as they would be with almost any other text editing program such as Microsoft Word.
