While I cannot attest to the Eclipse Find/Replace, I will say that the
more powerful regular expressions is nice. The HomeSite+ regex stuff is
rather weak (but still gets the job done most of the time). I do with is
was more powerful, like Eclipse.

The one in Eclipse is one line, yes it doesn't seem as good from the
start.
It's actually MUCH more powerful, allowing complex regular expressions
(unlike the basic regexes homesite allows).

Single line text box searching for me is usually something like this...

line1[\n\r\f\s]+line2

And because regex's are the cat's meow and all, you can get funky...

file contents:
line1
line2
   line3
line4
 line5
Search for: (line\d+)[\n\r\f]+(line\d+)
Replace with: $1 $2
Outputs: line1 line2 line3 line4 line5

Eclipse's extended find & replace is a lot better.
