About the only use for regexp capability I have is the ability to use "\n" in a search and replace. I selected RegExp, but juffed didn't see any of the line ends.

Thanks for the suggestion. I just now tried it with no joy. I have "Regexp" selected, and soon as I type "$" into the Find field it turns red.

I'm using X File Explorer (xfe), which comes with X File Write (xfw). I tried a test with it, and "\n" worked just fine. So at least I don't have to install another text editor. :-)

It's working, but not with empty strings. For example regexp ";$" can find all lines that ends with ";"
Unfortunately regexp "^$" is not working

Thanks for checking, Shura0. I installed Editra to get the \n usage.
