Multi-line find and replace in project #398

Open solomonkinard opened 9 years ago

solomonkinard commented 9 years ago

The ability to find and replace multiple lines would be epic!

397 is different from #396 because it is requesting multiple rows in both the find and replace fields.

396 only accounts for the insertion of a newline character in the replace field.

Is this for buffer find or project find?

solomonkinard commented 9 years ago

It could be useful in both, so feel free to choose the easiest one to implement (e.g. buffer).

NathanRSmith commented 9 years ago

I would like to see this as well. Thanks.

This already works in buffer find (with regular expressions containing \n), however it does not seem to work in project find.

+1 for \n

+++++++1111111 Have to jump back to Sublime to do multiline find/replace across projects. LAME!

Just a heads up for anyone that might run into the same problems I did:

  1. On Windows newlines are denoted by \r\n, not just \n like on unix-like systems. You'll need this for multi-line regex find expressions.
  2. If you use the $ character in a regex followed by your \n or \r\n, you'll be able to highlight text that matches the regex, but the replace will fail (in my experience). Taking out the $ will allow you to do the replace.

+1 Just please, never consider releasing another version without such a basic functionality. Sometimes I really struggle to truly embrace atom as the one editor to go with.
