I'd like to support this issue, specially gudmund's improvement suggestion:
1. Use \r for inserting a paragraph mark/paragraph break instead of \n
2. Use \n for inserting a newline/line break
That would be a good step forward.

But I'm also convinced, as sba wrote: The many existing issues about
Regular Expressions show that this area needs a general rework so that regular
expressions may become a consistent, powerful and INTUITIVE tool for the user.
- They are not yet!

OK, it has been fixed in 2.4.1.

On my OO.org 2.4 on Win32 (Italian translation) the regex do not work correctly;
if you put in the search box
[A-Z][a-z]*
and in the replace box

the replaced words have a x appended; e.g. this:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Maecenas tincidunt
metus vitae tortor. Sed elementum luctus diam. Etiam lorem.
becomes
Loremx ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Maecenasx tincidunt
metus vitae tortor. Sedx elementum luctus diam. Etiamx lorem.
.
Note that even if you change around the expression, e.g. putting $0 instead of
, or ([A-Z][a-z]*) and $1 the bug do not disappear. With some different regexes
(but still with  in the replace box) I also found that the text was replaced
with the searched string only few times, and then with an ampersand ();
changing the  in a $0 didn't solve the problem (the words were replaced with 
$0).
The issue seems to be Win32-only (I reproduced it on Windows XP SP3 and Windows
2000 SP4), since on Linux (Ubuntu 8.04) these regexes work fine.

Experimenting with 2.4 in conjunction with issue 15666 seems to give some hints
on two small improvements that may perhaps be possible for reducing the impact
of not being able to search for ^$ in conjunction with any string at all:

1. Use \r for inserting a paragraph mark/paragraph break instead of \n
2. Use \n for inserting a newline/line break

Rationale:
- OOo 2.4 can insert newlines, try a regex search and replace searching for \n
(any number) replacing it by  or $0 ($n if () are used in the search 
expression)
- OOo 2.4 can insert paragraph breaks already, but uses the wrong (illogical)
expression for it, \n, which is already used for newlines.

If this part of the code today is remotely like what it AFAIR was in 1.x, using
\r instead of \n for inserting a paragraph break seems to be a matter of
replacing the string \n by \r in the corresponding places of the code (and the
help files).

Let's hope a real programmer beats me to finding, downloading and messing up a
current snapshot of the code, although that part seems to be the easy part,
after looking at this:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Specification

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/The_Three_Golden_Rules_for_Writing_OpenOffice.org_Specifications
(etc. etc. etc. etc)

Since I can't find an answer to the question I asked below, and the behaviour in
OOo 2.4 has not improved for e. g. substituting line breaks but is still broken,
I ask again:

@SBA: in 70554 you say You can as well produce an entire specification
(better use the spec template :-) and attach it to that issue.. 

What do you mean by spec template? If there's something I am able to do that may
contribute to getting this fixed, I'll do what I can, of course.

My issue, http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=70554 was closed as
a duplicate of this one. I've been looking at
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=15666, which looked promising,
but now doesn't seem to address the problems in this issue or 7054.

In short, what issue 70554 is about, is giving an ordinary user the ability to
- search and find line breaks, any kind
- search and find paragraph breaks, any kind
- substitute any of the above, be it one or many with one or many of any
combination of the above.

Some *potentially* interesting info from drking in 15666 (which is targeted for
2.4):
The good news is that if OOo migrates to the ICU regex engine, many of the
existing issues may be resolved at a stroke. Although (looking at the ICU regex
spec) probably not all of them.

How likely this is to happen, or if it indeed solves this issue, I don't know.
Is there a general rework in progress? What issue should one look at to see
what's up, if any?

@SBA: in 70554 you say You can as well produce an entire specification
(better use the spec template :-) and attach it to that issue.. 

What do you mean by spec template? If there's something I am able to do that may

SBA: I adjusted the summary to reflect the general problem. From issue 75214,
there are more examples:
(1) \n and \t do not work in square brackets
(2) ^ works differently in square brackets
(3) \n finds a line break but inserts a paragraph break

I do not regard this as a collective issue. The many existing issues about
Regular Expressions show that this area needs a general rework so that regular
expressions may become a consistent, powerful and INTUITIVE tool for the user.

 .. this area needs a general rework so that regular expressions may
 become a consistent, powerful and INTUITIVE tool for the user.

Have been considering a spec. for just that, and will try and refine it to post
as attachment to this issue.

Is there any consensus on what level we need to try to target:  eg.
  (a) expert regex user,
  (b) journeyman regex, OR
  (c) basic regex + 'non-regex' wrapper/wizard for neophytes.

by (b) I mean: .. not as good as say  EditPad Pro , but better than that other
   rival product.
