[Solved] Search carriage return and replace with tab
Posted: Tue Jun 04, 2019 3:33 pm
Hi there
Sorry if this has been answered, but I haven't seen it if so. I have seen some find/replace topics but I'm specifically looking to insert a tab at the beginning of each paragraph in my text. I haven't found that here.
So the idea would be to find every occurrence of a carriage return and replace it with a carriage return followed by a tab. I've been able to find carriage returns using $ with 'regular expressions' turned on in 'more options' in the search box. I put in the 'replace with box' this: $\t
All that happens is the carriage return gets replaced with $\t
I hope that's clear, apologies if not.
Thanks
best
