So AT&RT has a specific "Multiple search & replace" feature.
Which is a different thing from the "Multiple search & replace" preset/template that I encountered and was talking about.
not exactly. MSR command is just a convenient frontend for that service hidden ASR preset, which (ASR preset) is also named "MSR". ASR & MSR are very tightly tied.
With 'different' I meant that I had only looked at the "multiple search & replace"
preset in AS&R, and I was completely oblivious of the "multiple search & replace"
frontend that you were talking about.
(some
RTFM would have done me good…)
So I now understand that if you want to create a preset that can replace multiple strings in a tag, it's best to start by opening the "Multiple Search & Replace" function from the drop-down menu and create and then save it as a preset.
After that it will be available in the AS&R panel, where you can also modify it if so desired.
I'm still not sure why AS&R shouldn't have an 'example' preset for it that a user can use as a template to modify.

A practical question about such a preset that I can't get to work:
Suppose you have 'semi-roman' characters in the title tag, such as: VIII
And you want to change that string to Ⅷ
(the single character for the roman number 8 )
I tried doing this:
VIII/Ⅷ (and *VIII/Ⅷ)
but it doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong?

edit:
I'm getting this error message when trying to create and save such a preset.
What does it mean, and what should I do?
