Hi Paul,

Search for "$" in the Search and Replace dialog box works. You have 
clicked the "Regular expressions" check box in the lower left?

You have a point with the inconsistency of \n. The Word way using \n 
and \p is more intuitive to a regular user (who can't be expected to 
grapple with regexps). Perhaps I should formulate a feature request 
for this.
