Can Replacement string include newline?
Using IDEA's Replace Text functionality, can the replacement string have
a newline-- and how is that done? Using the java.util.regex package, I
can do it easily enough with "\n" embedded in the replacement string.
I've tried that \n and several variations yet haven't managed a newline.
Thanks,
Jon

I don't know of any way to do it, either, but sure would like to know how.
I'm a big help, huh? :-D
On a related note, there's an open SCR for matching newlines:

And (a bit less related) another for multiline search and replace text
boxes:

Hoping find and replace gets some attention in Aurora (so i don't have to
keep firing up TextPad to do regex junk),

P.S. And here's my shameless plug for SCRs 2958, 2960, and 2961! :D

I appreciate the tracker research. There are so many issue now that some
sort of categorization is getting more urgent. I believe there is a
feature request on ITN for it.
Found a way to do this and posted on the issue.
I posted a new request for controlling newline matches that is
complementary to your request:

No kidding. I think IDEA needs to switch to java.util.regex and to
improve the expressiveness both on the Find string and the Replace With
string. See new request:
