GREP searches do work with returns and shift-returns, but not if you try to use them as part of a character range, which is why I separated them out into their own half of an or declaration.

I think using either the single-line or the multi-line modifier can fix this (one of them makes the period match paragraph breaks as well). Somewhere along the line I got the idea CreeDo intended to use this as a GREP style, hence my warning about it not working cross-multi-paragraph-y. But for plain searching it'd do nicely.

It's funny you got almost exactly what I got. Well, plus some returns and minus the backslashes :D
