[wingide-users] Feature request (bug report?) - transfer of search text when using regex is not escaped

[Russell Warren]

Right now I have Ctrl-F bound to "batch-search" so that when I highlight text and hit ctrl-F it automatically does a batch search (search in files) for the selected text.

The issue is that when you use regular expressions for your search, it still transfers the text exactly as highlighted.  It would be nice if the regex usage could be detected and the special regex chars could be escaped on transfer.

eg: with "math.cos(" highlighted, with regex enabled the text transferred on a batch-search should be "math\.cos\(".

Cheers,
Russ
