I did read that, however, there seems to be no way to specify paragraph breaks in the Find box, and also no way to specify a line break in the Replace With box. I also find it unusual that the same symbol would represent two different entities. In PCRE \n means line break only. Should I file a bug on the non-standard usage? With this non-standard usage there seems to be no way to do the replace that I need.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
