SEARCH AND REPLACE NEEDS IMPROVEMENT ACROSS THE OPENOFFICE BOARD.
IF YOUR GOAL IS TO COMPETE M$ OFFICE - SEARCH AND REPLACE SHOULD BE SIMILAR
ENGINE RATHER THAN REGEX ENGINE.
I RECOMMEND TO USE A M$ COMPATIBLE SEARCH AND REPLACE ENGINE BY DEFAULT.
THERE SHOULD BE A CHECK BOX TO USE REGEX ENGINE FOR GEEKS FROM UNIX/LINUX
THE BIG TURN OFF SIGN I HAD IN ADOPTING OO IS SEARCH AND REPLACE.
I AM VERY HEAVY USER ON NEW LINE, TABS, AND OTHER WILD CARD PATTER MATCHING
WHICH I FIND VERY SIMPLE TO USE IN M$ OFFICE.
I MAY HAVE INSTALLED AND UNINSTALLED OO ABOUT 8-10 IN LAST 4-5 YEARS. - I HAVE
MY EYES AND EARS OPEN FOR OO SINCE IT WAS STAR OFFICE.
THANK YOU. - TO SUCCEED YOU HAVE TO BE EQUAL AND BETTER NOT JUST BETTER
NO MATTER HOW STRONG REGEX IS - IT DOES NOT SEARCH AND REPLACE NEW LINE
I HAVE TO REWRITE THE WHOLE DOC USING SHIFT+ENTER TO BE ABLE TO SEARCH AND
REPLACE NEW LINE - ISN'T IT IRRITATING OR BULL SHIT.
