1. When I need to convert CR/LF to CR only, the text containing CR only is
not available, so it is not possible for me to select it.
2. If you write, in the command line, the correct command to do this
replacement, XyW answers this message "Wilcard must be in the same order on
both sides of
a change" (I think this is a bug). The command works well if you do the
reverse, i.e. if you swap the two arguments of the command.

3. The command to put selected text in command line is ctrl-alt-shift-c
4. The commands to put CR/LF, CR, LF in command line are: ctrl-enter,
alt-shift-r, alt-shift-f
