TSE: Operation: Search: Replace: Line: New: How to insert a new line 
in search/replace? [CR/LF]

---

Use a

\d013\d010

in the replace expression.

---
---

Steps: Overview:

 1. -Create a macro

      e.g.

--- cut here: begin --------------------------------------------------

PROC Main()
 LReplace( "ab", "a\d013\d010b", "i" )
END

<F12> Main()

--- cut here: end ----------------------------------------------------

 2. - Run this macro

 3. -The output will be

      a<ascii character 13><ascii character10>b

 4. -You first will have to save and to load this
     result to see that the output will have become

--- cut here: begin --------------------------------------------------

a
b

--- cut here: end ----------------------------------------------------

  5. -Thus by inserting a linefeed, b has been put on a new line

===

e.g.

  To replace 4 digits followed by a semicolon followed by 4 digits

   1234;5678

  with 4 digits followed by a semicolon followed a new lines followed 
by 4 digits

   1234;
   5678

  you could use

--- cut here: begin --------------------------------------------------

PROC Main()
 LReplace( "{[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]\;}{[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]}", "\1\d013
\d010\2", "x" )
END

<F12> Main()

--- cut here: end ----------------------------------------------------

---
---

Note:

To see the new lines inserted, you should first save your file with 
that replacements, and
then load that file again.
You will then see the new lines.
