Just to mention in Rev you can

set the lineDelimiter to "/"

but the filter command only considers CR's as lines,
and ignores the lineDelimiter

The rule should be to test various functions before relying on them to do what you assume they will do.

I would think that technically, it should work with wholeMatches = true.
Otherwise, with wholeMatches = false, it should return nothing.

I based this on consistency with the "normal" string logic that:

empty = empty (TRUE)
empty contains empty (FALSE)

With that said, it sounds like lineOffset isn't equipped to deal with this.
Maybe you could use something like:

offset( (the lineDelimiter)&(thelineDelimiter) ) ?


Hi

I was trying to find an empty line in some text, and thought that
lineoffset would be perfect for that. however, it seems to not work with the
search-string being "".

I also thought this used to work (though i'm not totally sure, and haven't
checked).

So.. bug or not?

thanks
