If you want search for every string that starts with <quote>x</quote>, <quote>ht</quote> or <quote>u</quote> and ends with <quote>ml</quote>, you can write a regular expression like this: <userinput>(x|ht|u)ml</userinput>.

Please note that using regular expressions lets you to make very complicated searches, but the cost could be a performance degradation. Regular expression can be very tricky, and it is often the case that <quote>if you want to solve a problem with a regular expression, you have two problems</quote>.</para>

&tdefilereplace; is currently part of &tdewebdev; package, so, in order to install it, you have to get a copy of &tdewebdev;. Note that if you are using a &kde; installation provided by your OS vendor, probably you already have &tdewebdev; installed; in this case, you can use &tdefilereplace; either by opening &quantaplus; Web editor, or by calling it directly (unless you have an old &kde; version). Else you can download the &tdewebdev; package from the Internet: please refer to <ulink url="http://kdewebdev.org">&tdewebdev; home site</ulink> for more information.
