Hello Felix,
I'm more confident with "^\s*" (or better "^\s+") too.
I prefer "^\s+", because it only matches with really existing spaces.
Maybe "\s*" works like this:
- Not existing whitespaces at the beginning of the line matches with
"\s*".
- The not existing whitespaces are replaced with "".
- Nothing is done.
Regards
Frank

Heya,
I confirm that both alternatives work. However, I'm more confident with
"^\s*", and don't see why "\s*" works...
