Way to do do search/replace adding linebreaks?

Hi Chez,

Try this (as far as I understood your request):

1. Bring replace dialog (for current file (Ctrl+R) or multiple files (Ctrl+Shift+R))
2. Check that Regex (Regular expression) box is ticked
3. Type search pattern in "Find" filed (in your case it should be just comma , )
4. Type replacement pattern: for line break it will be \n

5. Hit "Replace" or "Replace All"

Yup, that did it. Thank you.

That's not a great solution when the search string is complicated and has lots of things that would be interpreted as part of a regular expression.

What I do for complicated strings:

1. I'll use a normal search and replace to remove what I'm looking for. I should be left with a bunch of linebreaks with nothing else but white space in those areas.

2. I click the regex option and replace using:      \n\s
