regex: modifier: escape "|"

[NotNull]

Probably caused by the tropical temperatures here (both my braincells are boiling), but I can't figure something out:

Scenario 1:
Enable Regex (Menu:Search > Enable Regex)
Search for:

ever(y|y)thing

(filenames or folders containing the text "everything"

Result: 668 objects found


Scenario 2:
Disable Regex (Menu:Search > Enable Regex)
Search for:

regex:ever(y|y)thing

(filenames or folders containing the text "everything"

Result: 0 objects found.

I can get my search results with

regex:"ever(y|y)thing"

, but I can't remember how to escape the "|".

Code: Select all

regex:ever(y"|"y)thing

Of course! Man, that was stupid

Thank you!!
