It took me quite a while to guess that the replacement character for Search & 
Replace is not `$1` or `\\1` but `\1`. 
[STFW](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM) came up empty, since most questions 
are about problems with the pattern, not with the replacement/substitution 
character.

I think this should be documented somewhere on 
https://www.geany.org/manual/gtk/glib/glib-regex-syntax.html or 
`<local_path>/doc/geany/html/index.html#regular-expressions`.
