Well, this one (as I hypothesised) didn't work, for example:

Replace("(~\x0D)\x0A\x0D","\l",text,noline,nocase)

When presented with a string of 0D0A 0D0A 0D0A, it simply treated it as
two 0A0Ds with a leading 0D and trailing 0A.  The first 0D, and the
third, were supposed to have returned an invalid match.  What went
wrong?
