Sublime text find and replace with special characters

I suck at regular expressions and what to do a simple find and replace of '}' to '} /n' notepad++ can recongise what I'm after as it has the 3 options of normal find and replace, special chars and full regex. I however only ever used to option two. How can I enable special characters in my search using sublime text 2.

Cheers

Joe,

In sublime you can use find & replace. Drag the replace panel large enough and use cmd + enter to go to a new line.

Hit replace all:

If you want to replace } within notepad++ with } \n you can use the following rules:

  1. find: }
  2. Replace with: } \n
  3. Searchmethod: Extended (\n, \e...)
  4. Press replace all
