Furthermore: Having it work in one situation and not in another is a nightmare both documentation wise as regarding to usability.

Formerly it resulted in the string '\\t'. I guess you just misplaced the quote. Is it possible to add the other escape-sequences as well? (like for newline (as opposed to paragraph-break that unfortunately already is \n in the replace-box) glebovitz wrote: > Does the current RE library in OO support posix extensions such as [:space:] > etc? I think that would be more important than '/s'. Sure. Just have a look at the help for regular-expression search. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
