[TxMt] Find and Replace problem?

[Dameron Midgette]

Hi there!
     Thanks all of you, for your help...
     XHTML has the hN mapped to snippets, just had to dig farther.
     As for the \s space thing, it's clear now, but a bit inconsistent 
(or newbie confusing?). The find field works as expected, but replace 
accepts \t and \n, but not \s. (haven't checked others) I assumed they 
all would (started with \t), and forgot about my assumption. Perhaps 
the unambiguous (\t,\s,\n, etc. labeled "General Escape Codes" in the 
help files) markers could all work? IMHO, that would be more 
consistent.

											Cheers,
