Edit magic char search for \n results in an invisible found selection
Reported by: | Sprow (202) | Severity: | Minor |
Part: | RISC OS: Application | Release: | |

Details by Sprow (202):
As \n is unique in not having any display representation in !Edit, if you search for \n in magic char mode the found selection is of zero width. In the cut & paste world the rules say that should show the caret, whereas it shows a zero width selection (ie. nothing).
The ‘found’ function needs to special case a zero length selection and force the caret back on.
