Yes, but mentioned that there are ways to add both tr and
sed to windows. I also wrote a little cpp program that
does the same thing. Compile with linux compiler runs
with test 9 record file
linux run
time ./weird weirdmsg
real0m0.003s
user0m0.001s
sys 0m0.001s
windows run
time ./weird.exe weirdmsg
real0m0.236s
user0m0.042s
sys 0m0.097s
compiled with a native windows cpp compiler and run
with windows versus via wine might be close in time.
Said his file has 3,500 records so running with that would
give a better comparison.

Re: [libreoffice-users] "reverse solidus" not working in the find dialog box
Hi Thomas, and another try: In the 'Find' field call the context menu. That is a right click or Context-menu key on the key board. Choose 'Special Character'. The Reverse Solidus is at code point U+5c. That is is group "Basic Latin". I don't know whether a Japanese LibreOffice has a shortcut for the 'Special Character' dialog. In an English LibreOffice it would be 'Ctrl+Shift+S'.

This sounds like a problem with the Windows 10 Japanese keyboard. Have you complained to Microsoft? Perhaps they will fix the problem. The best that this group could do is give you a workaround.

Unfortunately none did solve the problem. Problem: I have a long file with about 3,500 lines (each line = item) looking like: HKES 良知良能 [りょうちりょうのう] /(n) xx/ where I would like to replace the "space[" and "]space" with tabs so that I can import the file into Calc. However, working with Japanese Windows 10, Japanese keyboard etc. NOTHING I tried so far allowed me to enter a \t (=> THIS is supposed to be a backslash) as a regular expression, telling the computer to replace the space[ with a tab. Question: Is there a trick telling the computer to replace any key sequence with a tab? Because [ and ] are part of the syntax of a regular expression, you need to use \u005b and \u005d instead. If the \ is not available on your keyboard, you can insert it in a text document in Writer by using the character map. It is at decimal 92. Then bring it to the dialog via copy Kind regards Regina -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
