In Stack Overflow I found a definition for Capture.Mouse but I still do not understand it.
Further explanation would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Rather than use the mouse I used the keyboard since it's more precise: move the cursor to the end of the line for the paragraph above (e.g., just after the period), then while holding down the shift key use the right arrow key and move the cursor to the beginning of the line for the paragraph below (make sure you don't select its first character), then hit CTL+C to copy it to the clipboard, then hit CTL-F to go into Sigil's Find box where it has inserted the two "end of line" characters, then (once only) hit the tab key to go to the Replace box and in it put the /p and p tags with the angle brackets. The click the Find button followed by clicking the Replace/Find (or Replace All). After you do that all of the lines will have the /p and p tags between them but will have been joined into one big line; use Sigil's Tools > Reformat HTML > Mend and Prettify all HTML Files to fix that.
