When opening a script file in the script editor, the encoding is determined automatically. If the Preserve encoding box is checked, then the script will be saved after editing in the same encoding it was in before opening in the script editor. If the checkbox is cleared, then the script will be saved in ANSI encoding (the current user encoding) after editing.

.

Replaces any character.

For example, the expression Layout.. will find all entries of the format Layout01,Layout02, Layoutaa, etc. in the script.

\

Escapes the character following it from being read as a special character.

For example, the expression Layout\... will find in the script all entries of the format Layout.01, Layout.02, Layout.aa, etc., that is, the dot character after Layout will not be recognized as a special replacement for any character.

[  ]

Inside square brackets, a set of options is specified, either as single characters or as ranges. It is not necessary to separate options with a space. When specifying a range, the start and end values are separated by a – sign.

For example, the expression [1-9] will find in the script all the numbers from 1 to 9, the expression [a-z] will find in the script all the characters from a to z, and the expression [ab1] will find in the script individual characters either a, or b, or a number 1.

*

Applied to a character in the text and says that this character can either be absent or repeated from one to several times.

For example, the expression Layout0*. will find entries of the form both Layout1 and Layout01, Layout001, etc.

+

Applied to a character in the text and says that this character can be repeated from one to several times.

For example, the expression Layout0+. will find entries of the format Layout01, Layout001, etc.

?

Applied to a character in the text and says that this character can either be absent or repeated only once.

For example, the expression Layout0?. will find in the text records of the forms Layout1, Layout01.

^

Negative symbol. Applies to the character to be excluded from the search results.

For example, the expression Layout.[^a-z] will find all entries in the script that contain the word Layout, followed by any character, and then any character other than the English letters from a to z.

$

End of line character. Applied at the end of the regular expression so that nothing extra is included in the search results.

For example, the expression Layout.[^a-z] will show Layout001 as a search result that matches the conditions, despite the fact that there is an extra character - 1 at the end. The expression Layout.[^a-z]$ will not include this entry in the search results.

The field shows which line the cursor is on.

A field for entering the number of the line to move to.
