I was scrubbing some data today and had textMate lock on me a couple of times. <div><br></div><div>I had placed [END OF RECORD] at the end of my line and went to replace the [END OF RECORD] with \n. </div><div><br></div><div>
My data was 1 line 60000 characters long. My mistake was failing to either a: uncheck the &quot;regular expressions&quot; check box or b. escaping the braces or c. using a delimiter that wasn&#39;t accidentally a regular expression. </div>
<div><br></div><div>No, this doesn&#39;t require anything to be fixed. The beauty of RegEx is that it lets you do so much. The ugliness is that it gives you plenty of rope to hang yourself. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div>
