Over the years, TeXShop has included major contributions from several programmers in Japan. I was not familiar with the OgreKit program, but one of these contributors added TeXShop support for it. Thus the Find Panel gained supported for regular expressions, which has been crucial for many users.

Howdy,

Let me add that if you downloaded the test version from yesterday you should update to this final version. Yesterday's test version has a problem  which is fixed in this final, released version.

Good Luck,
