I've got a sources script where `replace "|" "$verticalBar()"` is being used in the `[ParserScriptAlbum]` section, however each time `gotoline 1` is called, further occurrences of `|` have not been replaced (as seen by the `debug.out`). After a `gotoline`, using another `replace` will replace `|`s until `gotoline` is encountered again.

The solution for me was to use `gotochar 1` instead (which achieves the same since the script is using `joinuntil` to make the XML into a single line): all `|`s are replaced.

Is this a bug?
