gedit 3 regex plugin

Has anyone gotten a regex plugin to work in gedit 3 (Fedora 15)? I have tried 2 plugins so far: http://halfhourhacks.blogspot.com/2008/03/gedit-regular-ex开发者_StackOverflow社区pression-plugin.html http://code.google.com/p/yare-gedit-plugin/

For both, I tried installing to ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins/. According to https://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins, this should be the correct location. For completeness, I have also tried installing to ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins/, the location that worked for me in Ubuntu 10.10. Neither location produced any new search menu entries or any listings in Edit -> Preferences -> Plugins.

advanced-find 3.0.0 beta supports gedit 3, you can have a try. (I'm still using gedit 2)

I had to put the yare-gedit-plugin in the /usr/lib/gedit-2/plugins directory for it to work. I think the ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins/ solution is for an older version.

It's working fine for me. However, it looks like aleung's link is worth a try too. There appears to be a bunch more options.

Some time ago, I forked this plugin and now I ported it to Gedit 3. You may find it in this BitBucket page. If you like the look-and-feel of the original Gedit Search and Replace dialog, you may like it.
