Describe your feature or enhancement suggestion
As a user I would like a more flexible way of replacing the text data by using Regular Expressions
Add a checkbox to use RegularExpressions instead
The find textbox will act as the pattern
The replace textbox will act as the substitution string
Then run regex to get the result
Describe a concrete use case
Example 1:
Replacing specific words
Input: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
Find: fox|dog
Replace: animal
Expected result: The quick brown animal jumps over the lazy animal.
Example 2:
Manipulating whitespace
Input:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer nec odio. Praesent libero. Sed cursus ante dapibus diam. Sed nisi. Nulla quis sem at nibh elementum imperdiet. Duis sagittis ipsum. Praesent mauris. Fusce nec tellus sed augue semper porta. Mauris massa. Vestibulum lacinia arcu eget nulla. Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos himenaeos.
Find: \.
Replace: \.\n
Expected result:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
