Don,
The following will delete all empty lines, provided that
none contain "///":
  RTR/        (remove trailing white space from all lines)
  C/''///     (insert "///" in all lines)
  A/'///      (append "///" to all lines)
  0FD/ ////// (find/delete all lines holding "//////")
  CA/'///     (remove all occurrences of "///")

Regarding the TTS problem, I need details
("when tts runs into..." doesn't tell me much):
What are you doing to trigger the problem ?
What are the Items/Types involved ?
Is there an error msg ?
If so, what is it ?
