Find & Replace never ending

[ofer_golan]

Hi,
Using find and replace on a large sql file keeps running forever, eventually I have used another text editor…
I see that this bug has a long history, any suggestions?

Thanking all in advanced,
Ofer

could you describe what you are experiencing in greater detail?

Hi,
I am using find & replace on a large sql file - the editor keeps on running the operation and never ends, it gets stuck, I also tried using cmd + ctrl + g and it get stuck. Eventually I have to force quit the editor.

are you finding literal text or using a regular expression? maybe the expression is sub-optimal?
