Version 4.5.2 – Released 18th June 2009

A minor update:

New command: find_and_replace_regexp_text()

Here is an example of how to use this command. Take the text: ‘A cat eats a mouse, I like my cat’  if you want to change only the first ‘cat’ to ‘dog’ you can use this new command find_and_replace_regexp_text(‘A cat eats’,'cat’,'dog’);
It will change the text to ‘A dog eats a mouse, I like my cat’ , only the first cat is changed to dog.

[bug fixed] Autocomplete list of commands at advanced editor was not autocompleting – resolved.
[bug fixed] First selected template not saved on WC exit – resolved.
