where is the documentation?

[jdpipe]

I can't see any place where the Pluma (or Gedit) regular expression syntax (for find and replace) is explained/documented. Where is it? Why isn't it in the help menu, or linked to from https://github.com/mate-desktop/pluma.

(with Pluma 1.20.1 on Ubuntu 18.04, which I admit is a bit old!)

If I check man pluma I find the http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/docs, but this link is broken. It should point to https://wiki.mate-desktop.org/mate-desktop/applications/pluma/, which in any case doesn't provide any documentation.

In Pluma glibs regex system is used, which is similar to Perl Regex syntax, see https://docs.gtk.org/glib/struct.Regex.html. So, I think this https://perldoc.perl.org/perlre should be the correct documentation. If you find out more, you are invited to contribute to the wiki: https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-wiki :)

OK, done mate-desktop/mate-wiki#30
