"t+" means one or more 't's ... you want "t +" perhaps (note the space). "{"
is a special character in REs as well. and {\\*\\b doesn't match {\b0 ? you
probably want:
\{\\b0 \{\\\*\\bkmkstart\s+bookmark_name\}
replace \s with whatever the RE engine you are using defines as the space
metacharacter... sometimes \w ... usually \s .. you could just put " +" but
then if it's a tab not a space or some other wierdness....
(i'm assuming that the "\b" sequences in the string are literals and not
escaped nonprintables?)
