Sheri,
I do not know if this is what you are concerned with, however ... As I see it, the Save As feature of a pane will save the contents as a text (.txt) file. No carriage returns or line feeds are stored in the .txt file. Regex Coach will dynamically insert line feeds based on the size of the window. It will visually inform you that there is a generated break by the "!" inserted at the end of the line. If you resize the window, the "!" will change position and the line will shrink or expand. The expression you type is INDEPENDENT of that generated "!" and does NOT appear in the saved .txt file, nor is it part of the regex.
Perhaps you save your file with one window size and later open/import it using a different pane window size.
The regular expression you enter should function exactly the same way regardless of the window pane you are using.
I hope this helps.
Steve

Do you know how I can independently update the "pane" values for Regex Coach without losing the linebreaks? If I import a .reg file (even one that's just been exported) Regex Coach's strings with carriage returns and linefeeds are either truncated or lost entirely. I want to pass strings from my editor into the registry, then open Regex Coach. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Sheri
