   Confused first time Kate user

   From: rowlett@access.net   
      
   I have a Debian machine with Kate Version 16.08.3 .   
      
   I wish to do a search & replace using regular expressions.   
   The "Help" menu has led to   
   https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/katepart/regular-expressions.html   
   and   
   https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/katepart/regex-patterns.html   
      
   I have strings of the form "XYZn" where n is one to three digits   
   representing values of from 1 to 299. I wish to replace all occurrences   
   with "abc".   
      
   The documents give essentially no examples.   
      
   Help please.   
   TIA
