  • What software are you using? What do you mean "replace by 'enter?'" In your example, is this the before or after example - please provide both using \t to represent a tab character.

Using notepad++ (using regex):

find: (.*[0-9])(\t)([0-9].*)

replace (by inserting "enter"): \1\n\3

  • @Rohit Gupta, how did you get the image to load? I uploaded the image in FireFox but couldn't get it to load the image - only to display the link.

  • You can see the edit history by looking at the edit queue. Use the link e.g. edited X hours ago and Side-by-side Markdown button. The exclamation mark was missing.

  • The two .* are useless as well as the capture group for \t; a more efficient regex: (\d)\t(\d) and replace: $1\n$2
