Generate a sequence of numbers; increment replace
This is a regex feature that seems to be unique to TexPad on Windows. From their help files:
Expression: Effect:
\i Replace with numbers starting from 1, incrementing by 1.
\i(10) Replace with numbers starting from 10, incrementing by 1.
\i(0,10) Replace with numbers starting from 0, incrementing by 10.
\i(100,-10) Replace with numbers starting from 100, decrementing by -10.
Examples:
To insert line numbers at the start of each line:
Search for:^
Replace with:\i
To update sequence numbers of the form Axxx, Bxxx, … ,Zxxx where "xxx" is any number >= 100, independent of the letters, which are to be preserved:
Search for:\([A-Z]\)[1-9][0-9][0-9]+
Replace with:\1\i(100)
That would be seriously cool. We're looking at migrating from TextPad to Sublime, and would love to retain this feature.

Similar functionality has been developed as a Sublime Text 2 Plugin. It is available via Package Control under the name InsertNums.

We created a plugin with the functionality we needed.

incrementing not working correctly. It is adding 10 to all the single digit incremented numbers like 110,210,310,410 etc., when used \1(10) and \1(100). I tried this in textpad. What is the correct replace string.
Use curly bracket instead of parenthesis.
