package: gedit version: 2.14.4-2 severity: wishlist Hello!
I wanted gedit to find the string '\newline' within a LaTeX document, so I entered it in the 'Find' dialog. After clicking 'Find' gedit claimed that it has not found the string, although I could see it at least three times with my own eyes. I took a few minutes until I realized that when entering something like '\n' gedit does not look for the string '\n' but interpretes it as 'newline'. I had to enter '\\newline' to make gedit find what I expected. Similar things happen with '\t' etc. Of course this is a powerful feature and now that I know about it, I do not want to miss it anymore. But it MUST be documented somewhere! Or even better: It should be possible to turn the feature 'on' and 'off' in the 'Find' dailog. This is especially important for new users I think... Maybe this is something that should be forwarded to upstream as a wishlist item or minor bug. Thank you for your effort!
