What format are they? It doesn't seem to recognise \t or \n
In what context?
Find/replace. I was hunting for tabs (that I knew were there), but it just jumped to the next "t" or "n"
Well, the answer should be to look in the Manual and/or help file; unfortunately, neither of these even mentions "regular expression" - let alone give any descriptions! :-( Personally, I would use a "proper" editor (eg, CodeWright) to do this...
hi, well, I use next way: find a tab anywhere (or just press Tab) in a program and then select-copy-paste it to the Find/Replace request. Regards, Oleg
"find a tab anywhere (or just press Tab) in a program and then select-copy-paste it to the Find/Replace request." But that's a literal tab - not a regular expression! What about newlines?
again, my sentiment is, why do people like Keil (who make an excellent compiler) bother with making a subpar editor. Why can't the tool industry get together and agree on interfaces so we can buy the best IDE from and IDE maker, the best compiler from a compiler maker and the best editor from an editor maker. Erik I hope the "we know editors" guys will re-emerge after Borland killed CodeWright, as they did when Borland killed Brief. I see Borlands actions in the editor arena as "if we can't make it better, we will allow nobody else to do so". A hint to Keil If you want to persist in "use our editor - or else" there my be a few guys with REAL editor expertise available now that CodeWright has been killed.
The new uVision3 Editor correctly implements regular expressions and handles '\n' and '\t' characters in Find Functions. As an 8051 user you might download an ARM Eval Version and use the uVision3 that comes with it. It also works with the 8051 tools.
I'll try it. When is the 8051 version due out?
