 * Is there a way to search and replace for a word with a single quote? Currently(
   for me) it locks up. For example, changing:
 * Bill’s -> Bob’s

 * I’m interested in this answer as well. Is there a solution. I need to replace
   a word that is wrapped in single quotations and this search and replace doesn’t
   find it.
