<p>I'm using Ubuntu 17.04 and Geany 1.29.</p>
<p>I've activated the plugin and I've tried using it in different ways without success.</p>
<p>For example, I select a "<strong><</strong>" character and click on <strong>Replace characters in selection</strong> and nothing happens.</p>
<p>The same for other characters like "<strong>&</strong>".</p>
<p>Also tried the opposite, select an entity like "<strong>&amp;</strong>" and didn't work also. So I have no idea what's going on or how to use it.</p>
