However, when I enter one of the files, move to the start of the file and search for the same expression "" $"" using F7 (""regular expression"" checkbox is checked, rest is unchecked), nothing is found (""Search string not found""). When I move to the line where the space was found by ""Find file"" the space at end of line is there. To reproduce, file with lines like: ""a word "" ""another "" ""another "" may be used (without the quotation marks of course, the spaces at end of lines are important) }}} Comment 1 by Pavel Tsekov at Wed 02 May 2007 11:53:05 AM UTC: {{{ If you are building MC from source you can apply the attached patch. I am working on a patch to fix both this issue and the 1024 characters line limit described in bug #19329. The final patch may or may not include the attached patch, so this is an interim solution. (file #12664) }}} Comment 2 by Pavel Tsekov at Wed 02 May 2007 02:35:49 PM UTC: {{{ In fact the code dealing with RE in the editor is pretty bizzare.. I rewrite would be necessary. }}} " defect closed major 4.7 mcedit fixed no branch
