I want to test ignoring of .csv files, so I added this to Generic Highlighter > Ignored file patterns:
,\A(?:[^/\\]*\.csv)\z
After hitting OK, nothing changed. So I reloaded the file; still nothing. I re-opened the settings dialog and it had become this:
(?s:\\A\([^/]:[^,(?s:\\A\([^/]:LICENSE[^,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:README\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:INSTALL\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:COPYING\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:NEWS\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:qmldir\)\\z))\z,(?s:\\A\([^/]:[^
I tried with the contents of an untouched version of Creator:
\A(?:[^/\\]*\.txt)\z,\A(?:LICENSE[^/\\]*)\z,\A(?:README)\z,\A(?:INSTALL)\z,\A(?:COPYING)\z,\A(?:NEWS)\z,\A(?:qmldir)\z
Pasting that in results in this:
(?s:\\A\([^/]:[^,(?s:\\A\([^/]:LICENSE[^,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:README\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:INSTALL\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:COPYING\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:NEWS\)\\z))\z,\A(?:(?s:\\A\([^/]:qmldir\)\\z))\z
