replaceText problem

[Peter Haworth]

I finally got replaceText working although still not sure why it returned a
runtime error.

I had to include "(?m)" at the start of the regex in order to to make it
work in multiline mode.

The "^" at the start of my regex means "start of line" but unless you are
in multiline mode, line breaks aren't recognized by regex.

Doc Hawkins: As others have pointed out, you could have an if statement
with breakpoint on the same line or another statement before it separated
by a semicolon. However, this code will only ever examine my own scripts so
I can make sure that breakpoints only ever appear on a line on their own.
