use of escaping in strings when using regex and command line find and replace

[wizzlepig]

Hello!

I am having a tough time with the escapes…

this properly removed the string completely even though I did not escape the double-quotes.

emeditor /fi “<Version=”2.0″>” “c:\temp6\*.xml” /rw “”

this, however, will not replace the string,

emeditor /fi “<Version=”1.0″>” “c:\temp6\*.xml” /rw “<Version=”2.0″>”

I assume there’s some escapes required for the replacement string? Is there any info on what to escape from command line, and when?

Thanks!

Hello,

I don’t recommend using command line options to do replace. Please use a macro to do the replace.

Thanks!
