Is it possible for fined or find-and-replace to operate on crlf? #397

There are times when I want to replace something with a crlf. The copy replace window strips out ther crlf.

The Replace window has lost the crlf.

This makes trying to add crlf into text very tedious in certain situations.

Most find and find-and-replace features do not handle linefeeds. VW is an exception and it's so handle that I use it for completely unsmalltalk related text processing in spite of the... basic... API.

If Jadeite chooses not to handle then stripping off the unsearchable-for text is a good idea and would apply to find as well as find-and-replace.
