I have a text with LF and I wanted to change endings to CRLF, when I
noticed this:

If "Match whole word" is enabled (and obviously "Transform backslash
expression"), find/replace fails to find LF match, while if it's disables
LFs are matched.

This doesn't seem right to me, as I would have expected that "Match whole
word" has no influence on backslash expression, so thought to report it

Cheers

   "Transform backslash expression" just transforms any backslash expressions in the input search text into the character they represent. Any other options, including "Match whole word" are still active if they have been selected.
