Hi, I've switched the regex engine for the find & replace dialog 'Use regular expressions' option. This is (potentially) more powerful and fixes some issues (see below).

Please test and give feedback, thanks.

Log Message:

Merge gnu-regex branch: Use POSIX system/GNU regex engine for find & replace 'Use regular expressions' option. This alters regex syntax a bit - see the docs for details; we now support '?' operator and replacement backslash escaping is more standard. Make regex search imply replacing escaped chars. Allow \0 backreference replacement for the whole match. Note: Replace All may be slower; if this is a problem please let me know.

• code:

Add argument to utils_str_replace_escape() for keeping uninterpreted backslash escapes e.g. '\', '\e'.
