how to find end-of-sentence in search-replace?

[kenfhill84083]

I have been trying to use search-replace to find the end of sentences in order to break apart paragraphs into sentences each on its own line. I was hoping to use regex (at which I am a beginner).

The following regex string works in Libreoffice Writer but does not work in Atlantis:
([.|?|!|(.”)|(.’)|(?”)|(?’)|(!”)|(!’)])\s

The replace string is : $1\n

In Atlantis, you?” becomes you? ¶ ” (with ¶ being the end of a line - the line ends with the question mark and the next line has the quotation mark by itself). see attachment

Is there already a code - similar to ^p - but to find sentences instead? If not, what is wrong with my regex?

Thanks.

If you want to replace the white space between sentences with something, you can search for the following pattern:

Code: Select all

[\!\?.]"{0,}|^w|

It matches the white space itself.

Thanks. Is there a detailed repository for these kinds of regex snippets?
