Bug ID: 91336
Summary: regular expressions list in Help for asterisk or
question mark and "zero or"
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.2.8.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In the Help file, in the list of regular expressions, this appears: "* Finds
zero or more of the characters in front of the '*'. For example, 'Ab*c' finds
'Ac', 'Abc', 'Abbc', 'Abbbc', and so on." That, because it says "zero or more",
for the example, would also find "c", thus it would find everything. But that's
not the actual behavior when I tested.
Similarly, it says, "? Finds zero or one of the characters in front of the '?'.
For example, 'Texts?' finds 'Text' and 'Texts' and 'x(ab|c)?y' finds 'xy',
'xaby', or 'xcy'." That means that "Texts?" will find all instances of "?".
Clearer wordings are needed.
