If I create a search using grep like this
(.*)
and use replace of:
mv \1 \1.pine
BBEDIT 9.5 replaces all strings numerous times.
foo\r becomes mv foo foo.pine foo.pine.pine\r or similar
How do I prevent replace all from creating those erroneous
entries? I can use Replace & Find, but this is a large document.
Try using (.+) as the search pattern rather than (.*). The pattern
.* means match anything zero or more times. I believe this is the issue.
Or
Search: .* Replace mv & &.pine
No. This will match on blank lines and not fix the problem. Try
it on a test case and see.
But you could do
search: .+ Replace with mv & &.pine
