Regex replacement

qsipl · 07-01-2014, 07:36 AM

Hi all,

Can anyone suggest me, In Scintilla editor has the replacement limitation. So I couldn't find the ENTER-MARK in the editor. If anybody used this Scintilla editor, Please can you share with me, how to find the Enter-mark(^p or ^J) in this editor.

It depends what operating system you're using. Try one of these:
Windows: \r\n (i.e. carriage return + linefeed)
Unix or Mac OSX: \n (i.e. linefeed only)
Old Mac: \r (i.e. carriage return only)

Edit: It also depends what you're trying to edit. For example if you're editing text in an epub editor (calibre or Sigil) the text probably has Unix-style line endings (\n) no matter what operating system your computer is using. When using any text editor it's a good idea to find the option (if it exists) which displays line endings so you can see what you're dealing with.

^p sounds like a microsoft word notation for the paragraph marker (line feed/enter/return...whatever you want to call it).
