No. It does more than that. single spaced lines are gathered into a paragraph, while double spaces (or lines with only a >) are kept as double-spaces (paragraph break). Sometimes with html coded posts you do have to first run them through notepad. But stripper is best for eliminating stairstep posts and replacing hard returns with soft returns.
