Multiline regular expressions

[lauda]

Notepad2 cannot find regular expressions like this: ^[\n]+\n

I thought that this restriction of Scintilla, but, for example, Programmer's Notepad (http://www.pnotepad.org/) processes such expressions.

[White-Tiger]

it's a known issue (see the "?" right next to regex)

Notepad2 is currently missing multiline regular expressions and as far as I remember, it's indeed an Scintilla limitation.

Further, it seems like "Programmer's Notepad" has to circumvent it as well: https://github.com/simonsteele/pn/blob/master/pnwtl/scintilla/RegexSearch.cpp

Yet I would also like multiline regex for Notepad 2 ;) I miss this feature quite often... (and did so in Notepad++)

I have no idea about relation between http://www.pnotepad.org/ and https://github.com/simonsteele/pn/ but pn.exe from http://www.pnotepad.org/ processes multiline regexps, it's exact

At the top right corner of http://www.pnotepad.org there's a "Fork me on GitHub" link that leads to https://github.com/simonsteele/pn/ ...it is the official GitHub repository of the project. It's the same.
