           Summary: Regular expressions do not work in Find in files
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 3.2.1
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-bugs kdevelop org
        ReportedBy: simon munton demon co uk


Version:           3.2.1 (using KDE KDE 3.4.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

The regular expression pattern entered in the Find in Files dialog box does not \
produce the desired results, as the subsequent pattern passed to grep has too much \
escaping of meta characters.

For example, the pattern "\<K.*" (without quotes) results in the following grep \
command: egrep -H -n -e '\\<K\.\*'

Instead of finding all words beginning with the letter K, it only matches \<K.* \
literally.
