Dammit! I edited my post twice, once to put in the double slashes, and then again to remove some bold and italic formatting that had put itself round my grep searches. And the second edit removed my double slashes. And now it won't let me edit it again (pencil icon has disappeared).

This is what I was trying to say in my last search:

(?<=//{)([//r//n]|[^//}])+?(?=//{)

Can't we have a better post formatting engine that can cope with this syntax, since it comes up so often?
