Hi everybody,
I need some advise with search and replace and newline with Geany.
Consider the following lines:
This is an example "line starting with quotes line starting without quotes
I want to find every line that does NOT start with a quote and replace the new line character that preceed it. In other words, all lines not starting with a quote should be joined with the previous line.
In Geany, when only using the Option "Use regular expressions", the \n pattern does not find any new line characters. When I only apply "Use escape sequences", it finds the new lines. But using both options together again does not work.
As i need to find all lines not starting with a quote, I have to use a regex [^"] AND be able to find new lines...
Am I missing some setting here or is it a bug, that "Use regular expression" does not recognize \n? Or is there another regex syntax for matching new lines that would work?
Thanks for your help! Gregor
