Substitute a different escape char (other than ^) in finds

Postby KenWiltsee » Tue Oct 05, 2004 10:38 am

I am working with some code in which the ^ character commonly a part of identifiers. This Find/Search routines see this as an escape character and can't find the text without using ^^.

Is there a way to use a different char for the esc?

See Configuration - Search - Miscellaneous - Special character used in find/replace strings (normally ^).
