If I create a search using grep like this
(.*)
and use replace of:
mv \1 \1.pine
BBEDIT 9.5 replaces all strings numerous times.
foo\r becomes mv foo foo.pine foo.pine.pine\r or similar
How do I prevent replace all from creating those erroneous entries? I
can use Replace & Find, but this is a large document.
Try using (.+) as the search pattern rather than (.*). The
pattern .* means match anything zero or more times. I believe
this is the issue.
