0.87 Quick search special chars not working

Post by jadO »

For long time in quick search special characters are not working. I did not check which one exactly, but I know that file names that include "(" cannot be searched for.

Nice. Didn't know I can use regex in that field. Can this field type be changed to a remembering drop down field and keep track of the let's say 5-10 last searches? With regex it would be more convient to use a remembered search rather then typing regex over and over again.
