Edit book: When searching in normal mode, have spaces in the search expression match multiple spaces and line breaks in the text.
This is in the 4.13 What's New. I didn't install after I read that because it sounded very strange.

I did install it because I didn't know the new search/replace would be such a problem. It now means that normal search is very broken.

I'm amazed. I'd assumed you'd be more sceptical of anything new than me. After all, you're an official curmudgeon?

I have the 4.12 installer. So I was able to put it back. I didn't realize just what was done to normal search. So I installed, tried it and went right back to 4.12.

Kovid has announced that the next release will revert this change for normal search, and add the change to 'fuzzy' search.

Yep. Nothing to see here. The problem was solved in the thread linked to in the first post. No need at all for this additional thread in my opinion.

I started it to point to the other thread because the title was very much misleading.

I did report the thread to have the topic cha1nged and none of the mods bothered to change it. If that had happened, this thread would not exist.

You don't get to take matters into your own hands, Jon. Believe it or not, not all of your reports are deemed actionable by the team. As such you are to abide by the inaction as well. After reporting something, your part in the process is at an end.
