That is a great document, and I will read through the wiki more. I don't remember when it was, but I've looked at the wiki in the past and was unimpressed. From what I've read, $ could be used to match the end of the paragraph, however, with what to replace it? Even the wiki calls OOo behaviour nonstandard, which I take to mean non-PCRE as there is no real standard so far as I know.
