title: Notepad++ - how to add character to beginning of line
body: <p>I'm trying to add parenthesis to beginning and end of line in Notepad++. Using sed I would do:</p>
  
  <pre><code>   sed -i 's/^/(/' filename
     sed -i 's/$/)/' filename
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and be done, but I have to use Notepad ++ on Windows. I went to find and replace, chose regular expressions and tried to replace "^" with "(", but I got "zero length match" and it doesn't add the character (same with replacing "$" with ")"). </p>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
