As it's quite common when writing LaTeX to have text which contains \t (e.g. \textbf), \n (e.g. \newpage) or \r (e.g. \rightarrow), it would be useful if a search query could have an option to disable the automatic conversion of these characters.

The config option added in this branch seems to have the desired effect, but the name of the config option is debatable (it could be exact, perhaps, or something else).

It's still possible to match newlines (for example) by entering \n, but only in regex mode.
