Summary: Using regex "(.*)" with replace.py
Initial Comment:
When using regex on replace.py, and using this replacement: "(.*)"
"Something here", nothing happens.
It gives "Getting 60 pages from <wiki>...", and goes no further, just
stays there.
When using verbose, it prints "Requesting API query from <wiki>.", and
then goes no further, just like before
I have tested a lot of small differences, and the error only occurs when the text to find
is exactly "(.*)". If you use, for example "{{(.*)", it works fine.
The full arguments were:
'replace.py -regex "(.*)" "Something"
-cat:"Category"'

2.7.2
Thanks
