Description
How to reproduce
1 Run mcedit and type in these lines:
111 112 113 114 115 121 122
2 Go to the beginning of the file and press F4
3 Fill in the form this way:
"Enter search string:" ^1 "Enter replacement string:" 7 (*) "Regular expression"
4 <OK> -> <All>
The correct result MUST be:
711 712 713 714 715 721 722
As a result you'll get this text:
777 772 773 774 775 721 722
That's wrong
This regex should to change only the first char in each line.
a) there are wrong changes at second char in lines 1-5
b) there is wrong change at third char in line 1
c) pay attention to the 6th and 7th lines. They are correct.
