More markdown typing shortcuts in notes

According to the current TheBrain documentation, these Markdown shortcuts format text as you type:

Inline Markdown also converts live:

• inline code
• **bold**
• *italic*
• ~~strikethrough~~
• ==highlight==
• $$…$$ for math

A line containing --- creates a horizontal rule. Markdown characters can be escaped with a backslash, such as \*.

To display a literal backslash, escape it with another backslash:

\\

The first backslash escapes the second, so the rendered result is:

\

For example, to display \* literally—including both characters—you would type:

\\\*

That escapes the backslash and the asterisk separately.

I want to use "Find and Replace" to undo the escape

turn on Use regular expression and search for:

\\

In a regular expression, the first backslash escapes the second, so \ \ matches one literal .

To replace an escaped Markdown character such as \*, search for:

\\\*

This matches the literal sequence \*:

\\ → literal backslash

\* → literal asterisk

For ordinary literal searching with regular expressions off, enter the actual backslash directly:

\

In Find and Replace, the option is called Use regular expression:

1. Open Find and Replace with Ctrl+F (Cmd+F on Mac).
   
   
2. Enable Use regular expression to search using regex patterns.
   
   
   
3. Disable it to search for literal text.
   
   

For a literal backslash:

• Regex off: search for \
• Regex on: search for \\

The in-note search applies only to the current note. The same option is available in the brain-wide Find and Replace dialog.

In Find and Replace how do I search for the end of a line? So I can replace with a pipe to create a table row.

Use a regular expression:

$

$ matches the end of each line.

To append a pipe to every line:

1. Open Find and Replace.
2. Enable Use regular expression.
3. Find:

$

4. Replace with:

\|

5. Preview first, then choose Replace.
