What if I need to replace newlines?
Enable Regex mode and use \n for newlines, \t for tabs, \r\n for Windows line endings. You can also normalize all line endings by replacing \r\n|\r with \n.
Can I do case-preserving replacement?
Standard replace doesn't preserve case (Apple → orange becomes 'orange', not 'Orange'). For case-preserving replace, use regex with a function callback in browser dev tools, or post-process the result with a case converter.
How do I escape special regex characters?
Disable the Regex checkbox — plain mode automatically escapes everything. If you need regex but want to match a literal '.' or '$', prefix it with a backslash: \. or \$.
