buttons next to the Search and Replace String fields in the main window and the Script Editor.Using Special Characters
You can process binary characters, line feeds, tabs, etc by using the Binary Mode dialog, which is available via the buttons next to the Search and Replace String fields in the main window and the Script Editor.
Some frequently used special characters include:
\r\n - DOS linefeed sequence
\r - MAC linefeed sequence
\n - UNIX linefeed sequence
\t - TAB character
Notes:
Literal \ characters MUST be doubled as \\ to denote the literal.
The Binary Mode dialog can also be used with Regular Expressions.
For multi-line operations where you are not concerned with CR LF's or Tab's per se, consider using the *[] regular expression search operator.
The \0x?? style terms are based on Hex values, not Decimal. If you are familiar with the standard ASCII chart, go by the Hex values.
It is OK to use the \0x?? style even if a character has a standard alphanumeric representation. For example, the capital A character is hex 41 or \0x41 using the Search and Replace style.
Here is the list of Special characters. The \0x?? Style column is included for those who have a need to use hex values instead of the standard characters.
