Mode = RegExp

and instead of delimiting your search terms via <space> use |

That field can't automate anything.

Use a conversion script (copy your space-separated search terms to clipboard and then run the script)
Afterwards you can use CTRL+V to paste the necessary text into the field (the mode is selected automatically)....

Code: Select all

// Convert space-separated search terms to regex
    $clp = <clp>;
    end (strpos($clp, " ")    == -1), "No space found in clipboard, aborted!";
    end (strpos($clp, <crlf>) != -1), "CRLF found in clipboard, aborted!";

    $clp = ">" . regexreplace($clp, "[ ]+", "|");
    copytext $clp;
    status quote($clp) . " copied to clipboard...";
