Yes, they are but, in this case, BBEdit is better.  I can send the 
matches to a new document and delete 'em from the original document at 
the same time.  This is useful for when I'm needing to quickly weed out 
multiple sets of data and put each set into separate files for easier 
processing by other apps/scripts.
