Make sure you are using carriage returns (^M) and not new-lines if you are
editing the .txt file directly (if you are not editing it directly and just
exporting, then I would say you probably found a bug), you can also do complex
searches on one line like this:
fi=products/st=text/se=Hammers/ml=25/tf=description
