1.3.1 - quicksearch problem with '.' (dot) symbol - wrong results (SOLVED!)

[masterjp]

Today I wanted to quickly search all files with the file extension 'webp'.

I had some files with the webp and jpg extension within the same directory.
The jpeg files contain the text 'webp' within the filename.
I used the quicksearch text '.webp' to filter all webp files, but XnViewMP find my 'name_web_test.jpg' file, too!
Maybe you can make the search more symbol sensitive and for this kind of search.

In quicksearch field, the "regex" syntax is used. (search for regex or regexp on the web for more details ...)
Here, a dot is a wildcard character(such as ? in DOS syntax).
You can neutralize it with a backslash :

To search .webp you must type \.webp
