[TxMt] Strange Find and Replace Bug

[Benjamin Linton]

Here's a solution that might help you solve my issue:

<Soryu> ok try the following
<Soryu> select the text to find and press cmd-e
<Soryu> select the text to replace it with and cmd-shift-e
<Soryu> make the replacment selection
<Soryu> and invoke from the menu: edit->find->replace all in selection
<Soryu> does this still bring the bug?
<blinton> the bug does not occur
<Soryu> interesting, can you make a followup mail?
<blinton> sure
